SUMMARY:Detailed Design Optimization of a Solid Rocket Motor
DESCRIPTION:Lecturer:Ohad Ben Horin\n Faculty:Department of Aerospace Engin
 eering\n Institute:Technion – Israel Institute of Technology\n Location:
 https://technion.zoom.us/j/97716921243\n Zoom: \n Abstract: \n Details: \n
  Solid-propellant rocket propulsion is commonly used for both military and
  civilian launch systems. In solid rocket motors the required thrust profi
 le is determined by its design and cannot be changed or controlled after p
 roduction. In addition to the thrust profile\, there are other design goal
 s and constraints\, both at a system level and at the rocket motor level. 
 This makes the design of a rocket a complex process that involves many cou
 pled design variables.. The detailed design is largely based on profession
 al experience applied in a manual\, iterative process\, and therefore not 
 readily available to the system engineer. Instead\, the system engineer ne
 eds to rely on rough estimations for the propulsion system during initial 
 system design. These estimations could be non-feasible regarding the rocke
 t motor or sub-optimal for the complete system.\nThe current research pres
 ents a novel model of a solid rocket motor that combines several models wi
 th different levels of accuracy in order to quickly estimate  the impact 
 of the design variables on the systems' performance. The model is employed
  for quick\, automated initial design and is used in finding an optimal so
 lution of several case studies. Furthermore\, a comparative study of selec
 ted optimization algorithms is presented in order find the best suitable a
 lgorithm and parameters for a robust\, prompt convergence.\nZoom meeting
