JUMP DUE TO AERODYNAMIC ASYMMETRY OF A MISSILE WITH VARYING ROLL RATE

Abstract

Although the theory of aerodynamic jump for e.ssentially symmetric missiles with slight aerodymnamic asymmetry and constant roll is well known, the dependence of this jump on varyins roll has not been considered. If roll is produced by differentially canted controls, the rolling motion can be described by two parameters. The magnitude and orientation of jump is presented for the pertinent range of these parameters.
