StructuralMass:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Determine the mass available for airship structure and systems.
The lifting gas is assumed to be Helium.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Form:
[m0,mT,mH] = StructuralMass( VMax, kSV, rhoF, alt, mP );
Example:
[m0,mT,mH] = StructuralMass( 736310.778, 0.065, 0.5, 21300, 1814 );
--------------------------------------------------------------------------

alt (1) Pressure altitude [m]
mP (1) Payload mass [kg]
-------
Outputs
-------
m0 (1) Mass available for structure and systems [kg]
