The goal of the literal approximation method is to obtain simple literal (analytical) approximations for key dynamic characteristics of flexible flight vehicles. A basic question regarding the method is its usefulness as an additional design tool for existing design and simulation procedures. Two aspects of this question are: (1) ease of derivation and use of the literal approximations, and (2) the suitability of one set of literal approximations to describe the dynamics of a large set of significantly different vehicles. These issues are addressed by incorporating symbolic manipulation software into the literal approximation method for the analysis of a fifth order model of the longitudinal dynamics of a flexible flight vehicle. The automated literal approximation generated in this fashion reduces the manual derivation time by an approximate factor of four. A single set of literal approximations is shown to provide adequate approximations for the dynamics of significantly different flight vehicles configurations, such as an aircraft, a missile, and a hypersonic vehicle.
