Case study

Advanced Rocket Research Center

At ARRC, I focused on early-stage research for reusable rocket systems, working across modeling, simulation, and control. I designed small-scale rocket models in CAD with an emphasis on reusability and stability, and simulated long-duration trajectories using MATLAB and OpenRocket to evaluate performance under different mission profiles. My research centered on Thrust Vector Control (TVC) for reusable launch vehicles, exploring how trajectory optimization could improve efficiency and precision for Low Earth Orbit missions.
