Kb. Kim et al., IN-BORE PROJECTILE DYNAMICS IN THE LINEAR INDUCTION LAUNCHER (LIL) .2. BALLOTING, SPINNING, AND NUTATION, IEEE transactions on magnetics, 31(1), 1995, pp. 489-492
This paper examines three particular motions, balloting, spinning, and
nutation, that may arise during the transit of the projectile within
the barrel of a linear induction launcher (LIL). Experimental evidence
in a low-velocity LIL confirms the theoretical predictions.
