ABSTRACT

In this report different mathematical models for a ballistic missile are derived and simulated for the complete guided control system. In this research work V-2 rocket is taken as an example. Equations of motion are used in SIMULINK to perform simulations. An optimum trajectory is in accordance with launch angle and different burnout parameters. The missile would follow this ideal trajectory in the absence of any disturbance. But in real flight there are various errors and perturbations that make the vehicle not to follow the designated path. To have a successful flight it is required to remove the effect of these disturbances through a properly designed control and guidance system. 6DOF program is simulated which is then incorporated with the pitch orientation controller and a roll stabilization controller and results are simulated in accordance. Inertial navigation mechanization model is constructed in Simulink to propose an ideal navigation model for the rocket system. The controller analysis is performed at various points in the trajectory and the measurements are made in frequency domain. A comprehensive roll control model is designed along with pitch controller using Simulink and various frequency domain plot; bode plots & root locus for analysis.

    Deflections of a beam are important to be able predict the amount of deflection for a given loading situation. This experiment addresses determining the yield point for a material to fail, so the stress in the material does not have to reach to that point. This is where understanding beam deflection becomes a useful tool. This experiment is using beam deflection theory to evaluate and compare observed deflection per load values to theoretical values. Beam deflection experiment done by four parts. Part 1 -Simple Supported Bean, part 2-Cantilever Beam, part 3-The Principle of Superposition, and Part 4-Maxwell’s Reciprocity Theorem. For part 1 and 2 beam dimensions were recorded and are moment of inertia (I) was calculated using the following formula I=bh3/12.for part1, maximum permissible loads for mid-span and quarter-span were calculated. For part 2 maximum permissible loads for mid-span and end of the cantilever beam were calculated. For both parts different loads were applied and deflections were recorded. After calculating average modulus of elasticity for simple supported beam, which was approximately (-27.6*10^6 psi), it was compared to modulus of elasticity chart. The result indicates that the beam simple supported beam was made of Wrought iron. For cantilever beam, average modulus of elasticity were calculated, which was approximately (9148056.3), and compared with young’s modulus chart .the result indicate that cantilever beam was made of Aluminum. Part 3 reference point was chosen, single concentrated load at other point was applied and deflection was recorded at reference point. Same procedure was applied at another point on the beam and deflection was recorded at reference point. Finally, both loads were applied and deflection was recorded at the…

    This report has been written to describe an experiment performed on a channel section examining the stiffness of the beam through two differing types of deformation – curvature and deflection. The aim of the experiment was to determine the value of the flexural rigidity (EI) in two different ways; using the curvature, k, and the mid-span deflection. The testing method used for the experiment is described. The experiment found that the EI values calculated were as follows: - EIcurv = 1.76E+10 Mpa.mm4 when calculated using the curvature, k. - EIdefl = 1.77E+10 Mpa.mm4 when calculated using the mid-span deflection.…

(6 points) Two test specimens have the same Young’s modulus in tension. However, one of the specimens is homogeneous while the other one has two layers with one layer stiffer than other layer.

    A tensile test was performed on a 4140 steel sample and the axial and transverse strains were measured. Data points were collected at incremental loads and graphed to determine the elastic modulus (30.4 x 106). Poisson’s ratio was also calculated from the dataset and determined to be 0.29. These experimental values agree closely (within 2%) to the textbook values of the steel sample. A sample of 7075 Aluminum was used in a cantilever beam test. Intermediate and end loads were place on the sample and the strain was measured at various distances from the loads. Using the dataset from the individual loads, the superposition strain was calculated and agreed within 7% of the experimental strain with both loads. From the measured deflection of the cantilever beam and the dataset, Young’s Modulus for the aluminum sample was determined to be 9.1x106 psi which agrees within 8% of the textbook value.…

    This paper introduces an experiment about launching a water rocket. The projectile motion of this water rocket will be examined.In this experiment,the water rocket will be launched at 4 different angles 30°,45°60°and 90 °.We will measure the ranges,maximum altitudes and air time in order to have a better understanding of the projectile motion.As the practical situation which includes the air resistance and different kinds of errors caused by students’ carelessness is different from the theory,it is unaviodable that the results are quite different from the theoretic statistics. The horizontal velocity is related to the range, while the vertical velocity is related to the maximum altitude. This experiment can help us reinforce the concepts related to the motion in two dimensions although the water rocket does not have the ideal situation. A lot of equations we learned in class can help our group calculate the range and maximum altitude.…

    This is the capacity of a beam or slab to withstand failure in bending. It is measured by loading unreinforced 100 x 100 mm concrete beams with a 500mm span. The flexural strength is expressed as “Modulus of Rupture” (MR) in MPa and is about 12 to 20% of compressive strength. Beam specimens properly made in the field, consolidate by vibration in accordance with CSA A23.23C and tap sides to release bubbles. After 24 hours immersed in water for curing and cured in a standard manner, and tested while wet because flexural tests are extremely sensitive to specimen preparation, handling, and curing procedure.…

    Fig. 4 shows that specimens subjected to minor axis bending failed at considerably lower load than those subjected to major axis bending. Rate of reduction of ultimate load is more pronounced in the case of minor axis bending. For example, the rate of reduction of ultimate load for S500 specimen, when e/xo increases from 0 to 2.8, is 5.7% and 56% for the specimen subjected to major axis bending and minor axis bending respectively. The corresponding rate of reduction of strength for S1100 specimens are 6.15% and 23.8% respectively. At larger eccentricity ratios (from 1.4 to 2.1), the curves become flatter…
