  4. y y y y y y y y y y y y y x x x x x x x x x x x x x Segmentation • M1 Array Segmentation • Six identical sectors of 82 unique segments • Unique hexagonal shape • Unique optical figure • Segments (PSAs) clock 60 deg between sectors A A A A B2 B1 C2 C1 PSA C-Sys. (XY) Actuator & AAP Locations (Dots)

  5. Segmentation Scheme • Segmentation Overview: • Hexagons on a curved surface cannot be equal and regular (with regular gaps) • Segment outlines are determined by projecting a hexagonal array onto the optical surface, resulting in irregular hexagons (varied size and shape): • Constant gap segmentation • Segment size and shape variations are important for many reasons: • Affecting: Optical performance, Hex-correction, Size of mirror blanks, Length variation of Mirror Cell Top Chord members, AAP adjustment range… • By stretching the Base Pattern in-plane before projection, we can affect these resulting characteristics. Vertices in optical surface ZM1 project vertices and center onto optical surface, // ZM1 XM1 Center (scaled) (RM1) Scaled hex array Scaling rule Base pattern: regular hex array

  6. Segmentation Scheme • Segmentation studies : • Radial scaling of base pattern: • 9 different objectives evaluated • “Rule 7” selected a = 0.165 • Minimize blank size • Other metrics also favorable when a = 0.165 (Only radial scaling studied, other parameters might be used for scaling, such as Azimuth) Where: a is the scaling parameter Rmax is the largest vertex radii (before scaling) R is the radial coordinate of a point in the base pattern to be scaled Rscaled is the scaled radius of the point in the scaled pattern. k is the paraxial radius of curvature of M1 All coordinates in the M1 system Scaling Rule1 • Objectives evaluated: • Minimize Irregularity • Minimize Variation of Segment Area • Minimize Variation of Circumscribed Dia. • Minimize Cell top bar length range • Minimize SSA aligner range • Minimize Edge angle scatter (diffraction) • Minimize diameter of largest circumscribed circle • Minimize Max Pivot Shifts to rebalance Whiffletree • Minimize Max figure residual after correction Note: 1. Per Mast and Nelson

  7. Segmentation Scheme • Sensitivity of objectives: a = 0.165 Nominal cell member length = 1.24m 7: Max. Circumsc. Diam. – 1.21m 1: Max. Irregularity (mm RMS) 8: Max WT Pivot Shift (mm) Value of metric 5: Max In-Plane Alignment Range (mm) 6: STD Edge Angle Scatter (mrad) 9: Max Pivot Shift resid. (nm) 4: Range of Cell Bar Length (%) 2: Range of segment area (%) 3: Range Circum. Ø (%) Value of tuning parameter a

  8. Segmentation Scheme • Implementation: • Scaling rule affects the following: • Mirror shape and size • Coordinates of mirror vertices • Definition of optical origin and PSA coordinate systems (unique for each seg.) • Mirror cell node locations • Mirror cell top-chord length & variation • Position of AAP Post relative to Fixed Frame hole • Segmentation Database contains the following parameters: • PSA origins and Coordinate Axes in M1 Coordinate system • Mirror vertices • expressed in PSA and M1 coordinate systems • Location of Segment Clocking Mark in PSA XY-plane (Arrow points to center of M1) • Coordinates of AAP mounting pads on mirror cell top chord • Best fit radius for AAP mounting hole in Fixed Frame • minimize adjustment range over 82 segments • Location of edge sensor positioning fiducials in PSA coordinate system • Segmentation Database under Revision Control at IMTEC • See backup slides for excerpt from Segmentation Database

  9. System-Level Calculations SEGMENTATION CORRECTION(see Backup Slides for more detail)

  10. Segmentation Correction Approach • Segment irregularity and size variations would degrade optical performance if not compensated for • Single support system design for all 82 types: • Adjusted for each segment geometry • Correction approach: • Rebalance each whiffletree: • Pivot-point shifts • Analysis of each type required • Drill holes for whiffletree pivots in custom locations for each segment type • Low cost, automated CNC operation • Balance masses would raise part count and add mass • Analysis of worst case corrections • Max pivot shift estimate: ~3.5 mm • Axial RMS error increases ~ 10% (~1nm)

  11. Segmentation Correction Analysis • Calculate unit cases (1gz applied to distorted segment) • Size Variations (Grow and Shrink) • Clocking • De-center (X,Y) • Irregularity • Seven postulated cases (an approximate set, not orthogonal) • Unit effects isolated by subtracting 1g RMS (in quadrature) • Results show that pivot shifts are effective at compensating for segmentation (Next Slide) • Residual RMS is acceptable • Magnitude of pivot shifts practical • Note: This work was performed on the 1.2m segment • Results suggest the correction approach and have not been repeated on the 1.44m design.

  12. Segmentation Correction Analysis • Evaluated 12 Cases Shown (for 1.2m segment) • Conclusion: Pivot shifts very effective correction method 10.2nm for 1.44m segment

  13. Segmentation Correction Analysis • Hardware Implementation of Pivot Shifts Can shift Pivots Several mm in-plane

  14. System-Level Calculations INSTALLATION & ALIGNMENT BUDGET

  15. Installation & Alignment • Alignment & Registration • Estimate segment position errors • in-plane, clocking, piston and tip/tilt • Due to: • Registration - Clearance and Repeatability • PMA Assembly Errors - Tower to Optical Origin/Axes/Plane • Fixed Frame Alignment Errors - At Targets • Target to Fixed Frame Tower-Attachment Tolerances • Surveying Errors - Measurement Uncertainty (TMT Project Responsibility) • Position error estimates are based on RSS of various effects • Requirements are: • In-plane alignment: +/-0.200mm (0.400mm range) • Clocking alignment: +/-0.200mm at vertex (0.400mm range) • In-plane repeatability: +/-0.050mm (0.100mm range) • Clocking repeatability: +/-0.050mm at vertex (0.100mm range

  18. Installation & Alignment • Alignment & Registration Results

  19. Installation & Alignment • Optical impact of these positioning errors • using Terry Mast’s sensitivities • Conclusion: • Design is very close to meeting requirements • Need relaxation of clocking requirements for alignment and repeatability • In-plane repeatability: 0.100  0.125mm • Clocking repeatability requirement: 0.100mm  0.225mm at vertex • Alignment clocking: 0.400  0.450mm at vertex

  20. System-Level Calculations GAP BUDGET

  21. Gap Budget - Excluding Seismic • Nominal Segment-to-Segment Gap: 2.5 mm • Random Gap Reducing Effects: • PSA Manufacturing and Installation Tolerances 0.488 mm RSS Sum • Environmentally induced PSA motions 0.139 mm RSS Sum • Mirror cell deformations 0.486 mm RSS Sum RSS = 0.702 mm • Actuation Segment tip/tilt de-center: 0.754 mm • Adjacent segments with full differential tilt • Fault Condition – Controller or Human Error Linear Sum: 1.456 mm • Gap Margin = 2.500 mm – 1.456 mm = 1.044 mm • Note: Linear sum of all effects gives 2.479 mm gap change • within budget • See back-up slides for more details + Linear Sum

  22. Gap Budget - Including Seismic • Assume 3.0g seismic with segment motions out of phase by 22.5 deg [0.39 factor * 3.0 * 0.203mm (1g deflection)] = 0.238 mm • Random Gap Reducing Effects: • PSA Manufacturing and Installation Tolerances 0.488 mm RSS Sum • Environmental PSA motions (w/seismic)0.275 mm RSS Sum • Mirror cell deformations 0.486 mm RSS Sum RSS = 0.744 mm • Actuation Segment tip/tilt de-center: 0.754 mm • Adjacent segments with full differential tilt • Fault Condition – Controller or Human Error Linear Sum: 1.495 mm • Gap Margin = 2.500 mm – 1.495 mm = 1.005 mm • Note: Linear sum of all effects gives 2.717 mm gap change • exceeds gap allowable (Segments may contact slightly during EQ.) • See back-up slides for more details + Linear Sum

  23. Gap Budget • Gap Budget Summary: • Gap margin appears acceptable using RSS summation • Conservative linear summation shows little or no margin • No changes recommended

  24. System-Level Calculations ACTUATOR STROKE BUDGET

  25. Actuator Stroke Budget • Actuator Stroke Budget • PMA assembly errors are large terms, still being refined • Mirror Cell thermal distortion is significant TBD • 5mm actuator stroke seems sufficient

  26. System-Level Calculations MASS BUDGET

  27. Mass Estimate • Current design meets both fixed and moving mass limits: • Component sizing complete • Current CAD mass summary (no contingency included)

  31. M1 Segmentation Problem • Define details of segmentation of M1 into hexagonal segments • M1 curvature and constant gaps leads to irregular hexagons • Infinite number of ways to define irregular hexagons on M1 surface • Limit choices by applying a radial scaling rule to an initial, regular hexagonal base pattern, in projection • Approach (3D) • start with regular hexagonal array in the XYM1 plane (“base pattern”) • use a scaling rule to distort array in plane • Current rule has one adjustable parameter • extrude (//ZM1) distorted array into optical surface • consider shape of resulting segments as projected into local frames • Implement gaps • Calculate various metrics

  32. M1 Segmentation Problem • Tuning the scaling rule • Rule has one adjustable parameter • Parameter can be adjusted to achieve various goals • Tuning problem: • What are some useful goals to pursue? • What are the best adjustments of the parameter to achieve those goals? • Compromises…

  34. Previous Work (2/3) • Based on earlier scaling work by Larry Stepp & Jerry Nelson • Two scaling formulations • Three candidate goals for minimization (tuning of a) • Maximum irregularity of any segment • Range of segment area • Range of circumscribed diameter • Introduced concept of Best Fit Regular Hexagon (BFRH) • Least-square fit performed in local XY plane (XYSEG) • Minimizes RMS value of distances from vertices of segment to vertices of BFRH • Adjust radius of BFRH (1 parameter) • BFRH can be centered at OSEGor free to re-center (2 parameters) • BFRH can be aligned with XSEGor free to rotate (1 parameter) • Residual of LSQ fit is a measure of irregularity • Irregularity (and size variations) impacts performance (imperfect SuperHex correction)

  35. Previous Work (3/3) • Showed that • Both scaling formulations are equally effective / equivalent • All 3 goals can be achieved by proper tuning, using a single formulation • Goal 1: maximum irregularity reduced by factor 11 (with BFRH rotation) • Goal 2: range of segment area reduced by factor 86 • Goal 3: range of circumscribed diameter reduced by factor 11 • Allowing rotation of BFRH results in large improvements • Only a factor for Goal 1 • Re-center of BFRH has negligible impact • Results in more complicated definition of XYZPSA • Abandoned to keep definition of center simple from value without scaling

  36. d2 d3 Y radius clocking d1 d4 de-center X Best fit regular hexagon Segment outline in {XY}SSA plane d6 d5 Irregularity: Definition • irregularity  RMS distance between vertices of actual segment and vertices of LSQ best fit regular hexagon with arbitrary center, radius, and clocking angle • irregularity = RMS of residual of fit • general definition includes 4 variables: decenter (X & Y), radius, and clocking angle

  37. Re-centering BFRH has Negligible Impact These results from Aplanatic Gregorian design with a=0.6m

  38. Recent Changes and Additions (1/2) • Modified definition of segment center • Was: mean of XYM1 coordinates of 6 vertices (after scaling, before gaps) • Changed to: scaled location of centers in base pattern • New definition is closer to BFRH center > re-centering now even less useful • ~0.01mm difference in irregularity • New, more exact calculation of circumscribed circle • Was: centered at origin of local frame • Changed to: center is optimized to minimize diameter • Difference is small • Added representation of M1 cell • Cell nodes and Interface nodes • Added representation of SSA-Cell interface • 3 SSA support points per segment, at single location in local coordinate system • Represent SSA side of interface YPSA XPSA Free circle Centered circle

  40. Segmentation Patterns New baseline: 6×82, 1.432m segments

  43. Defining/Positioning Hardware • Defining Segment outlines • Begin with circular blank from polishing • Engrave fiducials into optical surface of polished segment • Fiducials define location of XYZPSA reference frame • Cut segment outlines relative to fiducials • segment edges are straight lines in XYPSA plane (basic) • segment side faces // to ZPSA (basic) • Final-figure segments relative to XYZPSA • Optical prescription described in XYZPSA • Defining M1-Cell to SSA interface coordinates • All assembly tooling aligned to fiducials only • Physical outline or vertices are never used as datum • Coordinates of support points are identical in all segment types, when expressed in PSA frame • Converting those coordinates back to XYZM1 frame provides global coordinates of interface points

  49. New Segmentation Goals (2/2) • Minimize diameter of largest circumscribed circle • Minimize size of glass boules/segment blanks • Now using exact calculation of circumscribed circle (free center) • Minimize magnitude of WT pivot shifts (rough estimate) • Whiffletree pivot shifts are used to fine-tune axial support to actual segment shapes • Custom machining of pivot features for each segment type • Pivot shifts require “real estate” in the hub region of whiffletree components • Large shifts could be difficult to implement • Estimates based on study of pivot shifts for various modes of segment shape variations • Based on “Correction of Segmentation Effects by Shifting Whiffletree Pivot Locations” TMT.OPT.TEC.06.009.REL01 (Eric Williams, June 2006) • Metric = maximum estimated shift at any WT joint, for any segment • Minimize residual figure error after pivot shift (rough estimate) • Pivot shift is very effective, but not perfect • Figure error after optimal pivot shift is slightly worse than nominal value • Estimates based on study of pivot shifts for various modes of segment shape variations • Based on “Correction of Segmentation Effects by Shifting Whiffletree Pivot Locations” TMT.OPT.TEC.06.009.REL01 (Eric Williams, June 2006) • Metric = estimated value of √(RMScorrected2 – RMSnom2), where RMSnom and RMScorrected are the RMS values of the SSA-induced surface errors, for a nominal regular segment (for which the WT geometry was designed) and the actual segment, after correction via WT pivot shifts, respectively

  50. Goals 8 and 9: Axial Support Pivot Shifts • BFRH is optimally clocked  no residual rotation • Correction for segment size (case 1) – using BFRH radius for size • Requires pivot shifts up to 0.49mm per mm of radial growth • Used nominal segment radius = mean(BFRH radii) (could have used midrange value instead) • Leaves residual figure error up to 0.425nm per mm of radial growth • Correction for Irregularity of segment (mean of cases 6 to 12) • Requires pivot shifts up to 0.636mm per mmRMS of irregularity • Leaves residual figure error up to 0.197nm per mmRMS of irregularity Mean = 0.197 nmRMS/mmRMS Mean = 0.636 mm/mmRMS Table from “Correction of Segmentation Effects by Shifting Whiffletree Pivot Locations” TMT.OPT.TEC.06.009.REL01 (Eric Williams, June 2006) Applicable to a=0.6m
