AERODYNAMIC DESIGN OF GUIDED WEAPONS WITH EXAMPLE APPLIED TO SAM
Aim of the Course:
The main purpose of the course is to gain knowledge in general aerodynamic configuration design and deepening knowledge in systematic details for surface-to-air missile (SAM). The lectures will cover linear and nonlinear phenomena, important steps and design procedures. Course lectures will be supported by related slides and examples of calculation, and systematic calculation of a Generic SAM (mid-range, two wings sections). Beside of prepared calculated data, some calculation will be done “on line” by lecturer’s software. Related references will be suggested for detail readings. It is assumed that attendees of course have good knowledge in general projectile aerodynamics.
Who should attend?
The course is intended for graduated students, engineers - researchers in the research institutions and engineers in the productions factories. It is advanced course, and it is assumed that attendees of course have good knowledge in general projectile aerodynamics (for basic knowledge see course “Classical Aerodynamics of Projectiles and Rockets”)
Duration:
Duration is two weeks (12 working days); 54 lectures (one lecture duration 45 min), but other arrangement is possible.
