February 08-09, 2007 at C-DAC, Bangalore, India

Jointly organized by Zeus Numerix, Mumbai &

Centre for Development of Advanced Computing (C-DAC), Pune

Know Us
Established in March 1988 as a scientific society of the Ministry of Communications and Information Technology, Government of India, Centre for Development of Advanced Computing, is primarily an R&D institution involved in the design, development and deployment of electronics and advanced Information Technology (IT) products and solutions. C-DAC's foray in the area of supercomputing based CFD applications has a manifesto to develop port and optimize codes on parallel computers.

Zeus Numerix

Zeus Numerix started out as IITZeus in the 1990s as a special interest informal group based in the Aerospace Engineering Department in IIT Bombay. Actively involved in research in CFD, CEM and related areas for the past decade, it has undertaken many research & development projects from government organizations as well as consultancy projects from industry. IITZeus has been innovating technology before its commercial metamorphosis in 2004 to Zeus Numerix Pvt Ltd. Zeus has developed several products like CFDTutor™, CFDExpert™, CEMExpert™. Besides CFD/CEM, Zeus also provides consultancy in Dynamics, Controls and Stability and coupled CFD/Dynamics problems.

Synopsis

As Modelling and Simulation (M&S) is penetrating the aerospace sciences at all levels, this two day course will introduce you to the difficult subject of modeling aerospace vehicles in six degrees of freedom (6 DoF). Starting with the modern approach of tensors, the equations of motion are derived and, after introducing coordinate systems, they are expressed in matrices for compact computer programming. Aircraft and missile prototypes will exemplify 6 DoF aerodynamic modeling, rocket and turbojet propulsion, actuating systems, autopilots, guidance, and seekers. These subsystems will be integrated step-by-step into full-up simulations.

KEY TOPICS
Introduction to modelling with tensors
Kinematics and dynamics of 6 DoF aerospace vehicles
Modeling of aircraft and missile subsystems: aerodynamics, propulsion, actuating, autopilots, guidance and seekers
Demonstration of aircraft and missile 6 DoF simulations
Instructions for building your own 6 DoF simulations
INSTRUCTOR
Dr. Peter Zipfel is an Adjunct Associated Professor at the University of Florida and has taught courses in M&S, Guidance & Control, and Flight Dynamics for 25 years. His 40 years of M&S experience was acquired at the German Helicopter Institute, the U.S. Army and Air Force. He has given short courses in the U.S., U.K., Germany, and France. He is an AIAA (American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics) Associate Fellow, serves on the Editorial Board of the AIAA Progress in Astronautics and Aeronautics Series, is a member of the AIAA Atmospheric Flight Mechanics Committee and the AIAA Professional Education Committee. His most recent publications are all with AIAA. Textbook: “Modeling and Simulation of Aerospace Vehicle Dynamics”, 2000; three Self-Study CDs: “Building Aerospace Simulations in C++”, 2003; “Fundamentals of 6 DoF Aerospace Vehicle Simulation and Analysis in FORTRAN and C++”, 2005; and “Advanced 6 DoF Aerospace Vehicle Simulation and Analysis in C++”, 2005.

Instructor's Bio-data
TARGET AUDIENCE
This course is valuable for engineers that employ, modify or develop detailed aerospace vehicle simulations and conduct performance evaluations. Some familiarity with vehicle dynamics and control is assumed, but no prior knowledge of simulations is required. To execute and modify the provided source code, programming experience in FORTRAN is desirable. Much of 6 DoF M&S is closely guarded (proprietary) by industry. This course will fill the need to make 6 DoF M&S available to a broader audience (aerospace engineers and students). It is based on Dr. Zipfel’s book and the course he teaches at the University of Florida.
