The basic aerodynamic forces are commonly defined in terms of dimensionless coefficients, the flight dynamic pressure, and a reference area. For missiles that skid yaw to turn see Section 3.3.2 for more details , the basic aerodynamic forces are illustrated in Figure 3.2 and are calculated as follows 2 , 6 CD Coefficient of drag in the wind axis system, CL Coefficient of lift in the wind axis system, Cy Side force coefficient, q Free-stream dynamic pressure at a point far from the airfoil 2pV2,...

Fig. 7.18. Terrain correlation processing. e The system can use either single maps or a voting group of three maps. The voting procedure normally improves the overall correlation probability of an area as compared to a single map, but for some areas, there may only be terrain of sufficient size for a single map. Even so, a single map of sufficient length can be made to have the same equivalent overall correlation probability of the shorter map set of three. With regard to design feature e, some...

where cjk is the direction cosine between the jth axis in the a frame and the kth axis in the b frame. Since each axis system has three unit vectors, there are nine direction cosines. Direction cosines have the advantage of being free of any singularities such as arise in the Euler angle formulation at 90 pitch angle. The main disadvantage of this method is the number of equations that must be solved due to the constraint equations. Note that by constraint equations we mean c11 c22c33 - c23c32,...
