Dunn Stuart G. Mathematical model for a SAM simulation

CRC 749. — 1982. — 434 p.This research contribution describes the analitical model upon which the software for the SAM simulation MISS is based. It includes a detailed discussion of the modelling of SAM guidance functions, the tracking process upon which they are based, and the aerodynamic responce to guidance commands.List of Illustrations.Coordinate system.
