COURSE OVERVIEW

Modeling, simulating and analyzing (M&S&A) flight dynamics of missiles, aircraft, and hypersonic vehicles require multi-disciplinary skills in aerodynamics, propulsion, guidance, and control. This three-day course highlights 6 DoF modeling techniques, introduces computer tools, and teaches

The instructor draws examples from his experience with the SRAAM air-to-air missile, F16 aircraft, and NASA X30 hypersonic vehicle. He demonstrates M&S&A, using the CADAC++ computer code he developed, and instructs the trainees in the execution of the simulations on their laptops.

Modeling, Simulation, and Analysis of Aerospace Vehicles Training workshop transfer hands-on experience to build, execute, and analyze high-fidelity aerospace simulations. Some of the topics include modeling flight dynamics with tensors, coordinate systems, 6 DoF equations of motion, aerodynamic modeling, autopilots, navigation, guidance, and control. These topics will be taught using missiles, aircraft, and hypersonic vehicles modeled in C++ computer simulations. CADAC++ is complimentary and the C++ compiler is a free download from Microsoft.

CADAC++ serves as the simulation architecture. It supports multi-object programming, event sequencing, and Monte Carlo analysis. Plotting and post-processing are provided by CADAC Studio. Participants should bring a Microsoft Windows-compatible laptop computer (administrative privilege required) with Microsoft Visual C++ compiler installed (The express version is a free download from Microsoft, but only for private computers). CADAC++, CADAC Studio, and the four prototype simulations will be provided at the start of the course.
