The Generalized Trajectory Simulation System. Volume I. Overview

Abstract

The Generalized Trajectory Simulation (GTS) system provides a vehicle design and trajectory simulation capability. GTS is written in FORTRAN compatible with CDC 6000/7000 series computer systems. User-oriented input data specifications, computational efficiency, diverse program applicability, and convenient program modifications have been primary considerations in the design of the GTS system. The trajectory simulation capability can accommodate diverse types of vehicle configurations, flight profiles, and mission objectives. Additionally, the GTS system contains an extensive vehicle sizing capability and a state-of-the-art optimization capability. The computer memory requirement depends upon the application of the system. GTS applications on 6000 series computers typically require 125K to 160K octal words of memory. For the 7000 series computers, GTS applications typically require 120K to 160K octal words of small core memory (SCM) and 50K to 100K octal words of large core memory (LCM). This volume provides the potential user an overview of the GTS system. Included is a summary of the major operational capabilities and the structural design of the GTS system.
