OVERVIEW Johnson Space Center (JSC) developed the TransHab concept, an inflatable habitation module as a potential crew quarters for the International Space Station (ISS). The general structural configuration consists of a central structural core combined with a multilayer inflatable shell. Two identical windows were designed in the TransHab inflatable shell, located in the 25 ft diameter cylindrical section of the shell. Each window assembly consists of the current baseline ISS window, the window frame, the bladder interface, and the connection to the TransHab restraint layer. ATA Engineering was responsible for the design of the window frame structure. TASKS PERFORMED & KEY OUTCOMES h Developed a preliminary design of the window frame. h Developed finite element models including
