Abstract:This paper describes the development of a test rig dedicated to tests of artillery-type models and rotating missiles, in order to simulate the roll, yaw and pitch movements of the models. The factors affecting the design of the system are outlined. A special measurement technique is introduced in order to determine at the same time the rotations around the three main axes of the model. Furthermore, a theoretical description based on a six-degree-offreedom approach is developed for the motion of the model. Part… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
