The Introduction of Spin to an Existing Flexible Shot Model within a Gun Dynamics Simulation

The paper describes the enhancement of an existing gun dynamics simulation package, to introduce spin to the flexible shot model. The original one or two piece flexible shot model was based on finite element beam theory, and therefore spin needed to take into account the moments of inertia at each n...
