Abstract
Present paper discusses the modeling, dynamics and closed loop aeroservoelastic analysis of a typical lifting type reentry vehicle. A linear aeroservoelastic formulation for a lifting type reentry vehicle is presented, which is based on the reduced order modeling approach, using the principle of superposition. The aeroservoelastic problem is formulated in the time domain by converting frequency domain unsteady aerodynamic loads, using pure lag-pole based rational function approximation. Second order actuator and third order sensor models are included in the closed loop control architecture. Results are obtained for both open and closed loop rigid body response of a typical vehicle, by designing a full state feedback control using pole placement technique. Typical level-1 flying quality specifications for longitudinal dynamics are used as closed loop performance parameters. The study also brings out the effect of closed loop command on the elastic response of the reentry vehicle.
