An Improved Procedure for Combining Day-of-Launch Atmospheric Flight Loads
Abstract
An improved procedure for combining launch vehicle atmospheric flight load contributors is presented. This new procedure produces load-to-allowable value ratios with lower bias and less variance than previously used procedures. It is expected that the new procedure will increase launch availability without reducing launch reliability.
