Design Evolution and AHP-based Historiography of Lifting Reentry Vehicle Space Programs

Abstract: The term "Historiography" is defined as the writing of history based on the critical examination of sources. In the context of space access systems, a considerable body of literature has been published addressing the history of lifting-reentry vehicle(LRV) research. Many technical papers and books have surveyed legacy research case studies, technology development projects and vehicle development programs to document the evolution of hypersonic vehicle design knowledge gained from the early 1950s onwards.

“…While the first case-study focuses on atmospheric point-to-point hypersonic flight vehicles, the next three casestudies applied the DBMS towards Space Access Vehicles (SAV) design synthesis. These case-studies have been executed by co-authors; Rana [17], McCall, and Haley; and have been aimed at the development and exploration of a comprehensive design solution topography for the lifting reentry vehicles (LRVs) [18] for a LEO resupply mission. These case-studies provide a demonstration of the DBMS' superior capability in sizing vast amount of different tradestudies, since more than 1,400 distinct LRV concepts have been sized & converged collectively in the last three casestudies over a span of 4 months [17].…”
