  2. Linear Perturbation • Forces are found by an integration of pressure distribution over the launch vehicle exterior • Integrations are done numerically within the code • Phi is the geometric angle w/respect to the freestream • S is a reference area, taken to be the area of the base of the launch vehicle • Validated by comparison to Vanguard results and other related geometries

  3. Important Assumptions in Theory • Small changes in geometry • Small angle of attack ~ 0 – 14 degrees • Valid for subsonic or supersonic flow 0 < M < 0.88 1.12 < M < 5 • Axial force neglects viscous effects

  4. Stresses due to Aerodynamic Force • Shear Stress • Differential of Normal Force between stages • Axial Loading • A*q∞*S • Bending Moment • Picture by Jayme Zott and Alex Woods
