Study of solid rocket motor for a space shuttle booster. Appendix A: SRM water entry loads

Abstract

An analysis of the water entry loads imposed on the reusable solid propellant rocket engine of the space shuttle following parachute descent is presented. The cases discussed are vertical motion, horizontal motion, and motion after penetration. Mathematical models, diagrams, and charts are included to support the theoretical considerations.
