dc.description.abstractThe aerospace industry has prioritized reducing fatalities and failure rates after the launch of a vehicle resulting from system or engine failure. Rocketry has been difficult over the years, and international players in the industry are constantly attempting to learn from any failures. This paper aims to decrease material, resource, and payload waste while ensuring crew safety by focusing on the computational modelling and aerodynamic analysis of a single-stage launch vehicle. CATIA V5 was utilized to create the computational model of a triggered nose cone rocket booster while ANSYS was used to analyse the trigger nose cone at different angles of attack and determine how the trigger nose cone will behave in case of emergencies such as system or engine failure, which could lead to the complete explosion of the launch vehicle. Based on the current findings, the trigger nose cone is not in the safe zone when ejected at an angle of attack greater than 20° due to the shockwave's effect on its surface when ejected from the main body of the launch vehicle.
