Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report summarizes the methods available to predict the aerodynamic static, dynamic, and control characteristics of missiles. The methods selected for Missile Datcom development were based upon a criteria which included ease of use, accuracy, utility over a range of flight conditions and cost effective in their use. This report describes the methodology appropriate for the missile designer. An outline of a Missile Datcom handbook is proposed; an automated version is also recommended for development. Those areas presently lacking suitable methodologies are also highlighted. (Author).

Book excerpt: Development of a Missile DATCOM handbook and computer program is described. The type of methods investigated as well as a method selection rationale is discussed. Methods were selected for predicting the aerodynamics of missile configurations made up of circular, elliptic or arbitrary bodies with or without fins an inlets. These methods predict static and dynamic stability derivatives and are suitable for preliminary design. A summary of the comparisons of many results with experimental data is included.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Missile Datcom, a stability and control prediction code tailored to conceptual and preliminary design applications, has been developed. The program uses a component build-up approach based on the equivalent angle-of-attack concept. Simple vortex models are employed to allow for rapid and economical analyses. Two novel enhancements for design application that have been incorporated into the code are: a) Experimental data substitution. Accuracy improvements are attained by permitting the user to substitute experimental data for Missile Datcom predictions during the component build-up process. Its use is appropriate when more accurate data are available for vehicle components or for partial configurations. b) Configuration incrementing. This allows a user to more accurately investigate the effects of geometry changes on an existing configuration. In this case, experimental data for the complete baseline configuration are used to 'correct' Missile Datcom predictions for the modified vehicle. Since 1980, when the development of a comprehensive missile prediction code (Missile Datcom) was seriously contemplated at the Air Force Flight Dynamics Laboratory, a virtually continual stream of papers detailing its development progress and interim capabilities has been published in the open literature. Aerodynamic methods selected for implementation in Missile Datcom are summarized which also includes a discussion of their limitations and of proposed method extensions. (JES).

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In missile preliminary design it is necessary to quickly and economically estimate the aerodynamics of a wide variety of missile configuration designs. Since the ultimate shape and aerodynamic performance are so dependent upon the subsystems utilized, such as payload size, propulsion system selection and launch mechanism, the designer must be capable of predicting a wide variety of configurations accurately. The fundamental purpose of Missile Datcom is to provide an aerodynamic design tool which has the predictive accuracy suitable for preliminary design, and the capability for the user to easily substitute methods to fit specific applications.

Download or read book Stability and Control of Conventional and Unconventional Aerospace Vehicle Configurations written by Bernd Chudoba and published by Springer. This book was released on 2019-07-23 with total page 392 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book introduces a stability and control methodology named AeroMech, capable of sizing the primary control effectors of fixed wing subsonic to hypersonic designs of conventional and unconventional configuration layout. Control power demands are harmonized with static-, dynamic-, and maneuver stability requirements, while taking the six-degree-of-freedom trim state into account. The stability and control analysis solves the static- and dynamic equations of motion combined with non-linear vortex lattice aerodynamics for analysis. The true complexity of addressing subsonic to hypersonic vehicle stability and control during the conceptual design phase is hidden in the objective to develop a generic (vehicle configuration independent) methodology concept. The inclusion of geometrically asymmetric aircraft layouts, in addition to the reasonably well-known symmetric aircraft types, contributes significantly to the overall technical complexity and level of abstraction. The first three chapters describe the preparatory work invested along with the research strategy devised, thereby placing strong emphasis on systematic and thorough knowledge utilization. The engineering-scientific method itself is derived throughout the second half of the book. This book offers a unique aerospace vehicle configuration independent (generic) methodology and mathematical algorithm. The approach satisfies the initial technical quest: How to develop a ‘configuration stability & control’ methodology module for an advanced multi-disciplinary aerospace vehicle design synthesis environment that permits consistent aerospace vehicle design evaluations?

Doro-on and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2022-09-27 with total page 817 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides multifaceted components and full practical perspectives of systems engineering and risk management in security and defense operations with a focus on infrastructure and manpower control systems, missile design, space technology, satellites, intercontinental ballistic missiles, and space security. While there are many existing selections of systems engineering and risk management textbooks, there is no existing work that connects systems engineering and risk management concepts to solidify its usability in the entire security and defense actions. With this book Dr. Anna M. Doro-on rectifies the current imbalance. She provides a comprehensive overview of systems engineering and risk management before moving to deeper practical engineering principles integrated with newly developed concepts and examples based on industry and government methodologies. The chapters also cover related points including design principles for defeating and deactivating improvised explosive devices and land mines and security measures against kinds of threats. The book is designed for systems engineers in practice, political risk professionals, managers, policy makers, engineers in other engineering fields, scientists, decision makers in industry and government and to serve as a reference work in systems engineering and risk management courses with focus on security and defense operations.

Book excerpt: The computer code is capable of addressing a wide variety of conventional missile designs. For the purposes of this document, a conventional missile is one which is comprised of the following: An axisymmetric or elliptically-shaped body, One to four fin sets located along the body between the nose and base. Each fin set can be comprised of one to eight identical panels attached around the body at a common longitudinal position, and An airbreathing propulsion system. To minimize the quantity of input data required, commonly used values for many inputs are assumed as defaults. However, all program defaults can be over-ridden by the user in order to more accurately model the configuration of interest.
