What is it about?
The internal flow of a realistic solid rocket booster has been calculated using strong approximations. Then the structural deformation by the internal fluid forces has been computed, showing a very good agreement with experimentally measured deformation. This is a significant improvement compared to previous predictions of the deformation.
