Structural Analysis And Design Optimization Of A Missile Container

  Naveen A,  Nataraju M

The container of the missile used for transportation and storage of missile is made of composite shell structure stiffened with rectangular ribs on the interior surface. The missile is placed on the bulk head which supports the weight of the missile and arrestors made out of chrome leather Nylon belt with rubber padding to clamp the missile on saddles. In my project a detailed finite element stress analysis is carried out to determine the static response of the composite missile container structure under mechanical loads. Ansys package has been employed to perform the structural analysis. The objective of my project is to perform analysis and do design optimization of the container for the following loading conditions. Internal pressure load of 0.1Ksc.Stacking load of two containers with missile (1+1).Braking load of 0.5g on one container during transportation. For lifting load of one container.
