Flight path analysis in sounding rocket “Libertador I” with computational simulation on three degrees of freedom

This paper presents obtained results from computer simulations in order to analyze the flight path of the sounding rocket Libertador I, developed in 2012 at the Fundación Universitaria Los Libertadores. The main aspects that affect the motion of a rocket are propulsion and aerodynamics effects. Nu...
