Technical Evaluation Report Meeting on Advanced Rocket Performance Life and Disposal

Abstract

The Specialists' Meeting on Advanced Rocket Performance Life and Disposal was held 23-26 September 2002. This was the second meeting on rocket motors organized by the Applied Vehicle Technology (AVT) Panel since it was created in 1996. The aim of the meeting was achieved in that a snapshot of the state-of-the-art in areas covered by the meeting was accomplished. This evaluation report catalogs results along topic areas defined in an earlier AVT meeting and provides recommendations for future meetings and RTA activities in the area of Rockets and Energetics. The aim of the meeting was to provide a forum in which the latest advances in rocket motor technology could be presented. New propellants were emphasized along with critical operational oriented disciplines such as service life assessment, end of life disposal and environmental impact assessment.
