Over the few decades, there has been an exponential growth in the application of inflated torus system in the field of space deployable antenna design, solar propulsion, and aerodynamic deceleration system. However, such a system is inherently susceptible to mechanical vibration and hence requires precise modal analysis to produce stable inflatable structures. This paper summarizes all the necessary steps to be followed for dynamic analysis of inflatable structures. With this objective, a butyl rubber-based inflated torus system with dynamic material properties has been considered in this work. On performing mechanical tests of the rubber sample, properties like Prony series parameters, complex modulus, and damping values were obtained. Using laser Doppler vibrometry, the modal behavior of a butyl rubber-based air-inflated torus with free–free boundary condition was studied. The results achieved from experimental modal analysis and simulation involving fluid–structure interaction were found to be in close proximity. It is envisaged that the test template integrated with numerical validation can lay the foundation for designing complex inflatable torus structures.

Temperature dependence of Young’s modulus of Ag microwhiskers was determined by a laser Doppler vibrometer. The Ag whiskers with diameters in sub-microns were synthesized by the use of physical vapor deposition (PVD). They have a five-fold twinned structure grown along the [1 1 0] direction. The temperature coefficient of Young’s modulus was measured to be [Formula: see text] ppm/K in the range of 300 K to 650 K. The measured values are very close to the reported values of [Formula: see text] ppm/K for bulk Ag single crystals. This finding can benefit the design of Ag-based micro/nano-electromechanical systems or micro/nano-interconnectors operated at elevated or lowered temperatures.
