Advanced Thrust Vector Control Preliminary Design Computer Program. Volume 1. Program Description. Book 1. Requirements

Abstract

The report documents work accomplished under contract F04611-71-C-0013. This program discussion describes the intent and capabilities of the computer program which was developed to evaluate preliminary duty cycles for missile systems, develop specifications for the control system being employed, perform preliminary design analysis on any of the control options, and predict the performance capability of a vehicle utilizing the control system characteristics obtained from the program. The program has the capability to determine the thrust magnitude required to fly any one of the six types of trajectories where thrust vector and thrust magnitude control is required.
