During horizontal and near-horizontal flight of the space shuttle orbiter, the effects of atmospheric turbulence on the vehicle are crucial in establishing the space shuttle design, control, and human pilot effects. The effects of both turbulent gusts and gust gradients (shears) must be taken into account. By means of a nonrecursive turbulence simulation model, twelve simulated turbulence time series for gusts and gust gradients were generated as part of a previous investigation. The current investigation was concerned with the spectral analysis of the time series based on the use of Fourier transform theory. A comparison between the computed spectra and the corresponding von Karman theoretical spectra is also included. A basic difference is explained between the computed and theoretical spectra which was identified as a result of the comparison. Conclusions and recommendations are presented.
