Influence of Aerodynamic Loads on Flight Trajectory of Spinning Spherical Projectile

The effect of lift and drag forces and aerodynamic moment on the flight of a spinning projectile in the atmosphere is investigated. The influence of the spin rate of the projectile on the range and height of flight is also studied, taking into consideration the progressive decay in the spin rate dur...

Zusammenfassung:The effect of lift and drag forces and aerodynamic moment on the flight of a spinning projectile in the atmosphere is investigated. The influence of the spin rate of the projectile on the range and height of flight is also studied, taking into consideration the progressive decay in the spin rate during the flight.
