This paper will illustrate the simulations and analysis performed to design the VIPER mission, in preparation for an experimental campaign, carried out within the context of the REXUS/BEXUS programme, on board REXUS-36 in March 2026. The planned experimental activities aim at addressing the data gap in literature regarding the dynamic characterization of small launch vehicles. This is achieved through the analysis of response data recorded during sub-orbital flight. with the final goal of advancing predictive models for design and testing.

Abstract
This paper will illustrate the simulations and analysis performed to design the VIPER mission, in preparation for an experimental campaign, carried out within the context of the REXUS/BEXUS programme, on board REXUS-36 in March 2026. The planned experimental activities aim at addressing the data gap in literature regarding the dynamic characterization of small launch vehicles. This is achieved through the analysis of response data recorded during sub-orbital flight. with the final goal of advancing predictive models for design and testing.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
