  1. 1. Design and Implementation of a Rocket Launcher Hybrid Navigation

    University essay from KTH/Lättkonstruktioner, marina system, flyg- och rymdteknik, rörelsemekanik

    Author : Omar Ugolini; [2023]
    Keywords : launch vehicle navigation; delayed Kalman filter; strapdown; navigering av bärraketer; fördröjt Kalman-filter; strapdown;

    Abstract : Rocket Factory Augsburg (RFA) a German New Space Startup is developing a three-stage rocket launcher aiming at LEO/SSO orbits. A fundamental responsibility of the GNC team is the development of the rocket navigation algorithm to estimate the attitude, position, and velocity allowing the guidance and control loops to autonomously steer the rocket.

  2. 2. Exterior ballistics analysis for rocket propelled KE-penetrator - A conceptual simulation study within fluid mechanics and flight mechanics

    University essay from KTH/Lättkonstruktioner, marina system, flyg- och rymdteknik, rörelsemekanik

    Author : Emil Wegberg; [2022]
    Keywords : Exterior ballistics; fluid mechanics; high-speed aerodynamics; CFD; RANS; conceptual design; Ytterballistik; strömningsmekanik; höghastighetsaerodynamik; CFD; RANS; konceptuell design;

    Abstract : This study has investigated the conceptual feasibility of a rocket propelled kinetic energy penetrator (KEP), designed for the handheld recoilless rifle Carl-Gustaf® 84 mm calibre system, from an exterior ballistics perspective. The methodology is based upon evaluating the aerodynamic properties of different conceptual design proposals through CFD-simulations and then performing trajectory analysis to assess their exterior ballistic performance.

  3. 3. Inverse Uncertainty Quantification for Sounding Rocket Dispersion

    University essay from KTH/Matematik (Avd.)

    Author : Tove Ågren; [2022]
    Keywords : Uncertainty quantification; Bayesian inference; Rocket dispersion; Neural networks; Markov Chain Monte Carlo.; Osäkerhetskvantifiering; Bayesiansk inferens; Raketspridning; Neurala nätverk; Markovkedje-Monte Carlo;

    Abstract : Sounding rocket impact points are subject to dispersion due to uncertainties in simulation model parameters and perturbations of the rocket trajectory during flight. Estimating the area of dispersion assumes that associated model uncertainties and magnitude of perturbations have already been inferred. READ MORE
