Abstract

  The rocket is launched at an angle of elevation with an initial velocity and thereafter is maneuvered with a constant or variable thrust which is again inclined at a constant angle with respect to the horizon. The overall range consisting of power and coasting phases has been determined. Finally this paper deals with maximization of the range with respect to optimum launching angle and thrust inclination. Two numerical examples are cited.
