The dynamics associated with the thrust vector control system of the launch vehicle is investigated. The objective of the thrust vector control system is to position the thrust vector to some commanded position. The thrust vector control system is the major source of nonlinearity in the flight control system. The modeling and simulation analysis of the TVC system of a sample engine are presented....
The dynamics associated with the jettisoning of the payload fairings from the parent launch vehicle is investigated. The separation dynamics of the fairings is derived using the constraint force equation (CFE) methodology. The analysis considers a spring and a hinge type separation system employed to jettison the fairings from the accelerating on-going stage. This study presents the results of determining...
