General basic concepts for a trajectory simulation of a guided missile
Abstract
Basic concepts needed for a flight path simulation of a guided missile were collected. Special attention is given to a missile with variable mass. The dynamic equations of motion are applied to a rigid body structure and the kinematic relationships are restricted to a missile flying over a nonrotating Earth.
