  • Abstract
    The research on the optimization and guidance of flight trajectories in the presence of windshear performed by the Aero-Astronautics Group of Rice University is summarized. This research refers to windshear recovery systems and covers three areas of investigation: take-off, abort landing, and penetration landing. Determination of optimal trajectories and development of near-optimal guidance schemes are outlined
