Vehicle safety remains a prominent automotive issue for engineers, consumers, and government regulators. One area that merits attention is the safety issue of when a child is left alone in a parked vehicle during the summer months when the ambient air temperatures are warmer. Injuries and deaths of infants, young children, and elderly adults have occurred due to elevated body temperatures for prolonged...
The efficient development of a highly reliable system, such as a new crew launch vehicle, cannot afford to ignore the lessons of history. A number of interesting studies of launch vehicle failures provide very valuable, albeit qualitative “lessons learned” on measures that a risk-informed program should take. If schedule and funds were unlimited, a very intensive and exhaustive test program would...
The non-standard dynamics characteristics of hypersonic vehicles, the aerodynamic effects together with the wide range of speed and altitude during operation make modeling and control of these vehicles highly challenging. Modeling and analysis of hypersonic vehicles are important for control and navigation system design. A six degrees of freedom simulation model of the wing cone generic hypersonic...
