Time-optimal Trajectory Design

Time-Optimal Trajectory Design is a trajectory optimization framework within launch vehicle mission analysis that, as the nearest class, formulates ascent or orbital transfer paths as a mathematical problem of minimizing flight time, and, as the distinguishing characteristic, incorporates dynamic constraints, boundary conditions, and performance limits specific to launch vehicles to achieve the shortest feasible time-to-target while satisfying mission and physical feasibility requirements.
