        abstract = {The manuscript deals with the study of effect of shape and physical behavior of materials on the mounting bracket of rocket nozzle. The procedure of our project involves analysis for evaluation of the structural response under loading, and modifications are based on this evaluation.  The modelling of the bracket for the required dimensions is carried out in CATIA. Loads are applied on the bracket. The actuator is attached to the nozzle near the complex ring through the use of a specially designed bracket known as actuator bracket. The numerical simulation for various boundary conditions and dimensions were carried out in ANSYS. The shear stress and bending stress for various conditions were simulated and the results were studied. The optimal values were obtained for bracket with 13mm thickness which exhibited minimum stress values.},
