Major Program Utilization of ASD/CLAS

Shuttle Mission Critical Usage

• 100s of Linear coupled loads analyses
• Nonlinear CLAs (multiple missions including 1E, 13A.1, 2J/A, ULF-3, ...)
  • Also, dozens of design cycles
• Variational CLAs
  • Sensitivity analyses
• Component-Mode Synthesis (100s of model integrations)

Constellation

• Multiple cycles of linear and nonlinear CLAs
• Liftoff pad separation, staging, ...

Minotaur

• Over 600 CLA cycles to characterize payload environments
• Pre-ignition, liftoff, transonic, super-sonic, ...
