Abstract
This paper discusses application of computerassisted design system to development of a solar sail powered spacecraft. Minimum orbit altitude is calculated; also non-linear static analysis for frame-type solar sail is performed in finite elements simulation system. Moreover, mathematical model of small solar sail spacecraft motion is considered. Finally, the analysis of this motion is performed.
