The influence of variable air density and of nonlinear aerodynamic characteristics on dynamic behavior at supersonic speeds
The effect of the variable density of the Standard Atmosphere on the dynamic stability of a missile in vertical flight is considered. The analysis is restricted to small disturbances from steady rectilinear flight. The exponential decrease of density with altitude characteristic of the Standard Stra...
