In response to the multiple ignition requirement of the expander cycle hydrogen-oxygen engine, research on the torch ignition system scheme is conducted, and a relatively reasonable low-pressure torch ignition system scheme is identified. The results show that the mixing ratio of the torch igniter fluctuated greatly when opening the hydrogen main valve, which may cause structural ablation. The scheme of introducing hydrogen from the inlet of the hydrogen turbine and liquid oxygen from the outlet of the liquid oxygen pump has a lower ablation risk, but it has a certain impact on the engine's start-up and steady-state characteristics. The low-pressure torch ignition start-up tests of liquid rocket engine are carried out for the first time in China. The experimental results verify the simulation results, and indicating the feasibility of the scheme.

The continuous reduction of fuel during the rocket launch causes the rocket structure to change continuously, and the natural frequency and modal shape of the structure also change accordingly. Aiming at the inaccuracy of the finite element model, the moment of inertia of the section is used as the correction parameter, and the minimum error between the numerical simulation results and the experimental test results under different states is the objective function, and an optimization model for multi-state model correction is established. The objective function is explicitly processed by sensitivity analysis and first-order Taylor expansion, and the optimal solution of design variables is obtained by sequential linear programming. At the same time, for the multi-state structure, taking the multi-section simply supported beam model as an example, the simply supported beam is tested by the hammering method, and the magnetic attraction weight scheme is designed to simulate the multi-state model. An optimization model is established for the objective function, and the multi-section simply supported beam model is revised to a single-section simply supported beam model after modification, and the ratio of the moment of inertia of the section to the area is met, which verifies the accuracy of the multi-state model modification method.
In order to control the riveting interference and minimize the damage of GFRP composite caused by riveting, it is necessary to study the influence trend of riveting squeeze force on the interference of ${\Phi4}\mathrm{\;{mm}}2\mathrm{A}{10}$ rivet. The dynamic riveting process and the interference of the rivet have been simulated by ABAQUS on the effects of diameter of pre-drilled hole and riveting squeeze force of ${\Phi4}\mathrm{\;{mm}}2\mathrm{A}{10}$ aluminum alloy rivet on GFRP composite and aluminum alloy layers.
