Conduct engineering approximations for expected navigation performance.
Conduct Actuator Sizing and Analysis, Inertial Navigation Analysis, aerodynamic vehicle modes assessment.
Develop and optimize trajectories using 3-DoF, 4-DoF & 6-DoF flight software.
Apply a strong understanding of closed loop guidance laws, such as Proportional Navigation, ZEM/ZEV, or reference trajectory tracking laws.
Include synthesis of mass, aero, propulsion, and structure models and constraints.
Include development of multi-objective functions to develop and optimize gain scheduled tables for aerodynamically-controlled vehicles.
Perform Monte Carlo (probabilistic analyses) to understand off-nominal closed-loop G/N/C performance.
Integrate simulations into an MDAO design environment.
