Design Of Nozzle For High-Powered Solid Rocket Propellant, Jackson Stephenson
Design Of Nozzle For High-Powered Solid Rocket Propellant, Jackson Stephenson
Undergraduate Journal of Mathematical Modeling: One + Two
This paper presents a preliminary nozzle design for a high-altitude rocket to be built by SOAR, the Society of Aeronautics and Rocketry. The equations and methods used for analysis came from professional sources via text or informational videos. The equations in focus will look at the temperature/pressure/area-Mach relationships for isentropic flow, pressure expansions in selected materials, and finding other characteristic properties using safe chemical property assumptions using CEARUN. The equations were used under the assumption of an isentropic flow under sea level conditions. If the design and the projected results look promising, they will be implemented soon for machining and …

The Forces Affecting A Sailboat, Kelly Stukbauer
Undergraduate Journal of Mathematical Modeling: One + Two
The objective of this project is to determine the specific effects of the various forces acting on a sailboat. Through this project, a greater understanding of both the physics behind sailing, and the calculus behind that physics, shall be gained.
