Constrained quasi-spectral MPSP with application to high-precision missile guidance with path constraints

Mondal, Sabyasachi; Padhi, Radhakant (American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 2020-10-15)

This paper extends the recently developed quasi-spectral model predictive static programming (QS-MPSP) to include state and control path-constraints and yet retain its computational efficiency. This is achieved by (i) ...
Preliminary effect of projectile yaw on extremity gunshot wounding in a cadaveric animal model: a serendipitous study

Stevenson, Tom; Carr, Debra J.; Gibb, Iain E.; Stapley, Sarah A. (Springer, 2020-03-11)

Gunshot wounding (GSW) is capable of causing devastating tissue injuries by delivering kinetic energy (KE) through the contact surface area of a projectile. The contact surface area can be increased by yaw, deformation and ...
A wind tunnel investigation into the effects of roof curvature on the aerodynamic drag experienced by a light goods vehicle

Holt, Jennifer C.; Garry, Kevin P.; Velikov, S. (Inderscience, 2015-01-01)

Roof curvature is used to increase ground vehicle camber and enhance rear-body boat-tailing to reduce aerodynamic drag. Little aerodynamic data is published for light goods vehicles (LGVs) which account for a significant ...
