✦ Synopsis

Present paper proposes, through numerical simulations, some optimization possibilities for an innovative concept aimed to control the magnus effect induced by the high spinning velocity of a Secant-Ogive-Cylinder-BoatTail projectile. It appears that with a relatively small contra-spinning surface, the lateral force can be drastically reduced on a wide range of flight conditions. Present computations confirm experiments in supersonics and extend them for high subsonic and transonic regimes for small angles of attack.

Abstraet--A high weft insertion rate in a weaving loom can cause yarn breakage and a non-uniform tension in the weft yarn at shed closure. A numerical simulation model is proposed that is able to calculate the tension profile in the weft yarn during insertion. It is illustrated how the simulation mo
