Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The equations of motion of a flexible variable-mass launch vehicle, modeled as a system of particles that deform with respect to the vehicle frame, were derived using Kane's Equations. Flexural motion using the assumed modes method with the time derivative of mode shapes were included in the equations of motion as an alternative to the current mode scheduling procedure common in practice and to determine the significance of the new terms.
