Regularizes the exchange of mathematical models between spacecraft contractors (SCC) and launch service providers (LSP).

This International Standard normalizes the exchange of mathematical models between payload contractors (PLC) and launch service providers (LSP). It identifies standard methods for modelling the dynamic behaviour of both launch vehicles (LV) and payload (PL), particularly when they are coupled prior to launch and during the early moments of the launch phase.

In standard mode, the delivered models represent dynamic and static behaviour at the launcher interface. The requirements provided in this International Standard are the minimum necessary for dynamic coupled analysis. They may not be sufficient for stress analysis. The payload models are full integrated models from the different parts of the payload under the payload contractor authority, including also their own adapter to LV interface in the case that the adapter is a part of the payload.

This International Standard does not include the validation of PL models.
