Inertia Matrix Math Model O PROP • Calculates Ixx, Iyy,Izz at the Center of Mass for the different time steps requested by the D&C group. • Includes calculations for an oxidizer and fuel tank in each stage, as well as skirts between stages. • Only utilizes inputs from codes that are already in place: • Tanks.m (ref. Hiu) • Skirt_v3.m (ref. Doyle, Schoenbauer) • CM_stg.m (ref. Childers) F O PROP F O PROP F AAE 450 Spring 2008 “Structures, it’s a good thing.” – Martha Stewart
Tank Buckling Math Model • No longer utilizing Euler buckling loading. • Instead, using Method 3 from Baker, Kovalevsky, and Rish (ref. Kane) • Calculations at a maximum G-loading of 30 g’s. • Additional Credit: Steven Izzo Support Rings Tank Structure D Future Work L • Incorporate further complexities into Inertia calculations. • Engines, Nozzles, Payload, Avionics, Support Structure • Support Ring Design • Integrate both models into MAT analysis main code.

Backup Slides – Method 3 versus Euler Method 3 Euler Curvature Parameter Buckling Coefficient • Euler buckling is a very good method when L/D ~ 100, Method 3 satisfies any L/D calculation. • Euler provides a max Force that can be placed on a cross section, while Method 3 provides a max Stress value.
