Use of a hybrid computer for the flight simulation of a bomb/parachute system

Conference ·
OSTI ID:6439604

The Flight Simulation Laboratory at Sandia National Laboratories, Albuquerque, is used primarily to study the dynamics of unguided bombs, rockets, shells, and reentry vehicles and to develop and evaluate guidance and control systems for guided vehicle concepts. This report describes the use of this laboratory for a 12 degree-of-freedom simulation of a bomb/parachute system. The simulation results are compared with data from flight tests.
