2 UKSEDS Rocketry Training Day 2013, Sheffield University
• Introduce you to Open Rocket and how to use it • Using Open rocket for key analysis like stability,
mass etc• Running simulations, understanding the data
produced and exporting it.• Getting from design to checkout • Most importantly give you a look at the sort of
structure lessons for rocketry groups can take.• Evaluating the lesson and adapting for your branch.

• Rocket Science is a science and without a computer it would require us doing a lot of calculations
• So Rocket CAD software allows for quick analysis of a rocket and stability
• Also means being able to change variables and seeing how it affects your rockets performance straight away
• Visualisations and seeing the fit of your rocket could also be very helpful as well.
