calculating forces on airframe

watermelonman · Oct 6, 2015

Rocksim and Open Rocket are great, but what I want to test out is the aerodynamic forces acting upon my airframe and various velocities and accelerations. Any hope out there? I am afraid I may know the answer before asking, but wanted to bring it up.

I know Solidworks can do it. I'm just not sure how to.

AeroCFD can do the FEA analysis to provide some of what you are looking for. That said, you have to know what you are doing to create the model and interpret the results
