Missile Geometry Package

Abstract

Concept Analysis Corporation (CAC) markets a general-purpose CADCAM system, CADCEPT. CAC has tailored custom CADCEPT features for Redstone, using the CADCEPT Macro language, which is a powerful tool for geometric modelling using parametric design techniques. This system was used to build a geometric model of a missile. Task 1 was an initial problem definition task. Conversations with Mr. Ed Vaughn at Redstone resulted in the submission of a sketch of a typical (unclassified) missile and specifications for input format to Redstone's SPIRITS analysis program. The goal was defined to model this missile in CADCEPT, and to demonstrate that sections could be cut and fed into SPIRITS in the proper format. Task 2 was the preparation of demonstration macros, which illustrate the capability to handle the geometric shapes and design problems identified, and to simulate new software required.
