Learning outcomes

  1. Model aircraft forces, moments, trim, stability, drag polars, performance and compressibility using explicit assumptions and coordinate systems.
  2. Analyze propeller/jet/rocket propulsion through control-volume momentum, efficiency, nozzle, specific-impulse and architecture reasoning.
  3. Use rocket equation, staging, mass fractions and ascent-loss budgets to evaluate launch performance at system level.
  4. Calculate two-body orbits, conserved energy/angular momentum, Hohmann transfers and plane changes.
  5. Analyze entry energy, ballistic coefficient, deceleration and thermal-protection scaling while respecting model-fidelity limits.
  6. Represent spacecraft attitude/orbit state, fuse sensors, and design feedback GNC architecture with saturation/fault awareness.
  7. Close structural, power, thermal, communications and reliability budgets as coupled spacecraft-system decisions.
  8. Translate scientific needs into requirements, delta-v/resource budgets, trade studies, verification evidence and failure-mode closure.
