Abstract: The problem of the one-dimensional heat equation with radiation boundary conditions is studied. Steady state and transient solutions for a space-based mirror are obtained under a broad class of boundary specification. Associated elastic stress and displacement are investigated. Time-varying heat flux at the boundary is also considered. The method requires solving equations of the type $\tan \lambda =\left (Bi_1+Bi_2\right )\lambda /\!\left (\lambda ^2-Bi_1Bi_2\right )$ for the eigenvalues $\lambda$, for which complete asymptotic solutions are given. Selected transient response results for temperature and stresses are presented.
