Quick response targeting program
Computer program generates and verifies operational launch vehicle targeting presettings for lunar free-return missions and lunar landing missions. Program is applicable in astronomy and nuclear physics, and in areas where improved targeting techniques are valuable.
Bosley, J. T.↗
Battery simulation program
Computer program calculates spacecraft battery energy at specific times dictated by input sequence of recharge, discharge, and no activity phases. Recharge phases are assumed during times not specified, unless batteries are fully charged. Warnings are printed when energy falls below specified level. Program assumes two identical batteries.

Metabolic balance analysis program
Computer program calculates 28 day diet for life support consumables requirements and waste removal. Equations representing food breakdown into carbohydrates, fats, and proteins, modified to account for digestive materials and indigestible crude fibers, formulate total energy consumption. Program applications are listed.

Propulsion sizing program
Computer program was written to evaluate and define optimum design parameters of low pressure auxiliary propulsion system. APS will provide attitude and translational control of space shuttle vehicles. Program evaluates subsystem design parameters such as engine chamber pressure, mixture ratio, expansion ratio, and subsystem component weight and size.

Three bit mass spectral search program
Computer program is developed to interpret spectral data in order to assist chemist in identifying low resolution mass spectra. Two versions of program, using approximately same amount of core are available. In both programs, core requirements are roughly proportional to maximum number of unknowns to be handled on each pass through tape.

Spherical-Bearing Analysis Program
Computer program SPHERBEAN, developed to predict thermomechanical performance characteristics of double-row spherical roller bearings over wide range of operating conditions. Analysis allows six degrees of freedom for each roller and three for each half of an optionally split cage. Program capabilities provide sufficient generality to allow detailed simulation of both high-speed and conventional bearing operation.
