A Comparative Study of Prediction Techniques for Supersonic Missile Aerodynamic Coefficients / Loai A. El-Mahdy … [et al.]

Evaluating the aerodynamic coefficients of flying vehicles such as missiles is a key step in their design and development procedures. In practice, the aerodynamic coefficients can be estimated using experimental measurements, numerical simulations, or using empirical and semi-empirical engineering t...
