Abstract
An equation of missile motion in the pitching plane was found, assuming a non-linearity in aerodynamic stiffness in the form of a cubic term. An iterative method for approximating the angle-ofattack response to a step displacement of elevator angle was formulated. The results of applications of this method were compared with computer solutions; convergence of the approximations was demonstrated. A simple feedback control system was designed, and the iterative method was extended to the case of a control system step input. The method was thought to have limited practical value because of the labor required in using it.
Description
This thesis document was issued under the authority of another institution, not NPS. At the time it was written, a copy was added to the NPS Library Collection for reasons not now known. It has been included in the digital archive for its historical value to NPS. Not believed to be a CIVINS (Civilian Institutions) title.

    Pole-zero modeling of transient waveforms: a comparison of methods with application to acoustic signals 

    May, Gary L. (Monterey, California. Naval Postgraduate School, 1991-03);
    The modeling of damped signals as the impulse response of a pole-zero system is considered for a broad range of pole-zero modeling algorithms. The goal is to obtain the best possible fit between the model impulse response ...
