Numerical Calculations of the Response of a Spinning Spheroidal Payload to Coning Motion.

Abstract

A method for numerically evaluating a particular type of singular integral coupled with a complex eigenvalue problem is presented here. This presentation provides the information needed to carry out the numerical calculation found in the cited Murphy report. This technique has proved useful for calculating the moment exerted by a low-viscosity spinning liquid in a coning spheroidal container. Keywords: Liquid filled projectiles; Singular integral; Numerical calculations; Spheroidal container; Rotating liquid; Eigenvalue. (jhd)
