Movement Dynamics Of Firework Shells Fired From Mortars

V. Ya. Yakovlev and S. K. Chankaev Abstract: Experimental investigations were carried out using 125 and 310 mm firework shells. The pressures in a mortar during firing were measured. A mathematical model of the firing action concerning low pressure in the space behind the shell was developed. Here it is supposed that non-simultaneous processes of ignition …

Comparison of 6-DOF Trajectory Model with Modified Linear Theory for Bullets

Dimitrios N. Gkritzapis, Elias E. Panagiotopoulos, Dionissios P. Margaris and Dimitrios Papanikas Abstract: A modified linear model is proposed for fast and accurate prediction of short and long-range trajectories of spin-stabilized bullets via atmospheric flight to a final impact point. This model is compared with a full 6-DOF trajectory model. The computational flight analysis takes …
