### aerodynamicsOptimization
This program implements an aerodynamics optimization of the rocket. <br/>
The rocket is optimized to reach the highest apogee possible with the chosen set of fixed parameters. <br/>
The code uses a genetic algorithm to reach the goal. It may take some time to run. <br/>

The simulator computes the different apogees, maximum
accelerations and launchpad exit velocities for
different motors and different masses.
This program is developed for a primary apogee analysis with different engines when the structural mass is only known with a degree of uncertainty. The simulator computes the different apogees, maximum accelerations, and launchpad exit velocities for different motors and different masses.

### sensitivityAnalysis
This program implements a sensitivity analysis on the ascent phase of the rocket. Two types of analyses are available: deterministic and stochastic. <br/>
In the deterministic analysis it is possible to vary the nominal values of the aerodynamics coefficients and the structural mass of the rocket.
The relative magnitude of the variations is set by the user and it is the same for all the parameters considered in the analysis. <br/>
In the stochastic analysis several simulations are performed, in each of these the uncertain parameters assume values according to a normal distribution centered on their respective nominal values.

This is a program developed in MATLAB for the simulation of 6 D.o.F. rocket dynamics during all phases of flight: thrust, coast, apogee and recovery. <br/>
It predicts 3D trajectory, apogee height, forces acting on the rocket, and various other aerodynamic values. <br/>
This simulator can also run stochastic simulations with multiple options. <br/>
