Problem Statement |
Lets say that you are part of a development team building a new rocket assisted 155mm projectile. The rocket motor will burn for 2 seconds and it nominally comes on 7 seconds after launch.
Now your team lead wants to know if this is the right timing. Not only that he wants to know if the same answer works for two different quandrant elevations.
So the matrix you want to investigate is:
  | Burn On | Burn Off | Quadrant Elevation | Run1 | 7 | 9 | 300 | Run2 | 6 | 8 | 300 | Run3 | 8 | 10 | 300 | Run4 | 9 | 11 | 300 | Run5 | 7 | 9 | 200 | Run6 | 6 | 8 | 200 | Run7 | 8 | 10 | 200 | Run8 | 9 | 11 | 200 |
I know some of you are now saying, "Why not just run the 8 trajectories and be done with it ?
The answer is best answered by a number of questions.
I am sure you get my point, don't use the Analysis Bot for a one off trajectory, but if you even smell a hint of a study, don't try to go it alone!
