Canard Homing Artillery Modular Projectile (CHAMP). Phase II. Exploratory Development. Volume 2. Theory and Simulation of Controlled Projectiles

Abstract

This volume supplements Vol. I by providing a theoretical basis for controlled spinning projectiles and their simulation. Included are equations of motion, coordinate transformations, aerodynamic forces and moments, and perturbation equations. A hierarchy of simulation models is developed starting with the full seven degrees of freedom (7DOF) model and including 4DOF and 5DOF models with time variant and time invariant parameters. The details are provided for constructing a non-linear 7DOF simulation, employing the techniques of the Modular Software System, a Sanders developed simulation computer program that eliminates user involvement with software debugging.
