Abstract

In order to get the stability behavior of solid rocket motor chamber under lateral pressure, buckling analysis are carried out by finite-element software. Based on hoop strain vs load curve, the buckling load and mode shape of chamber are predicted conservatively by the strain criterion on case surface. Simulated propellant and chamber for test are designed and developed. Then the lateral pressure loading test is performed to validate and modify the computational.
