The study for solving the attitude of feed transfer flexible guidance with principle of minimum potential energy

The relation of feed transfer flexible guidance attitude with elevation and rotation of gun is studied in this paper. By analyzing the structure and movement characteristics of guiding system, a mathematical model for solving three-dimensional attitude of flexible guidance is proposed with principle of minimum potential energy, and the computing software is developed to confirm the attitude of flexible guidance in any fire direction and angle of naval gun, then examples for calculating attitude of flexible guidance are given with -30° of fire direction and 60° of fire angle. The study lays a foundation for determination of the design parameters of automat and is important for studying the adaptive and synchronous technology of the hoisting and feeding system of minor shipboard armament.
