    The document describes two homework problems involving numerical integration and simulation of rocket dynamics and damped harmonic oscillation. Problem 1 involves deriving and simulating the equations of motion of a rocket under different force profiles, and analyzing the velocity and position outputs. Problem 2 involves numerically solving a second order differential equation describing damped harmonic oscillation, and plotting the position and velocity outputs. Code and plots are required to be included for both problems.

    AAE 3521: Homework 1

    Fundamentals of Flight Vehicle Control

    Due: Sept. 2nd


    Problem 1 (40 pts)

    Ignoring gravity, derive the equation of motion of the following simplified rocket:

    Ignore gravity, derive the equation of motion of the following simplified rocket:
    Mass of the rocket: m = 100 Kg = constant
    Position or rocket at t = 0 is X = 100 m
    Variables: Force (F), acceleration (A), Velocity (V), Position (X)
    𝑑𝑣 𝐹
    =
    From Newton 2nd law and kinematics, we can get:ቐ 𝑑𝑡
    𝑑𝑥
    𝑚
    =𝑣
    𝑑𝑡
    Use numerical integration to:
    a) Simulate the following input force F profile: t=0, 40 (20 pts)
    F = 1000 N [ 0 to 10]
    F= 0 N [10 to 15]
    F = -1000 N [15 to 25]
    From the results of your simulation:
    1) Plot F/10, A, V, X/10 of the rocket versus Time on the same plot (title, label, legend) see plot formatting next page
    2) What are the values of V and X at t = 11 sec (from Graph)
    3) What are the values of V and X at t = 20 sec (from Graph)
    4) Attach a “clear” snapshot of your code (driver and all functions)
    b) Simulate the same equation using the following force F profile: t=0, 60 (20 pts)
    F = 1000 N [ 0 to 10]
    F= 0 N [10 to 15]
    F = -1000 N [15 to 25]
    F = -1000 N [ 25 to 35]
    F= 0 N [35 to 40]
    F = 1000 N [40 to 50]
    1) Plot F/10, A, V, X/10 of the rocket versus Time on the same plot (title, label, legend)
    2) What are the values of V and X at t = 50 sec (from Graph)
    Plotting script, use:
    %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
    H = plot(Time,F/10,'k',Time,Acc,'m', Time, Vel,'r', Time, Pos/10,'b'); grid

    set(H,'LineWidth',4);
    grid on;
    xlabel('Time in sec');
    ylabel('Variables');
    legend('Force','Acc','Vel','Pos');

    Problem 2 (20 pts)

    Given the second order equation: 𝑥ሷ + 2𝜁𝜔𝑥ሶ + 𝜔2 𝑥 = 𝜔2 sin 5t


    Where: 𝜁 = 0.1 and 𝜔 = 10 rad/s
    m
    Initial condition 𝑥ሶ 0 = 5 and 𝑥 0 = 10 m
    s

    Numerically solve this equation on the interval t = [0 10] sec:


    1. Include your code (driver as well as all functions)
    2. Plot position and velocity using the following script:
    *****************
    clf
    H = plot(Time, V,'r', Time, X,'b'); grid
    set(H,'LineWidth’,2);
    grid on;
    xlabel('Time in sec');
    ylabel('Variables');
    legend('Vel','Pos');
