The article presents a procedure designed for identification of projectile's trajectory model through aerodynamic coefficients estimation. The identification process is based on firing tables artificially prepared (firing tables prepared using mathematical flight model for the projectile instead of trajectories recorded on field tests) with the use of modified point-mass and rigid body trajectory models. All the necessary data, including physical parameters of the projectile and its aerodynamic characteristics are provided. The detailed results of estimation of chosen aerodynamic coefficients are presented in both visual and tabular form. The main purpose of this paper is to establish the minimum number of trajectories (as characterized in firing tables), and the permissible error of initial parameters being passed to the mathematical model that would allow the correct identification of projectile's trajectory model.
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.
