Synopsis

"Exteriror Ballistics – A New Approach, presents the exterior ballistics of point-mass projectiles based on the analytical G-drag functions (G1, G2, … G7, G8) and on the “projectile-wave and Snell’s law” model that is a fundamental result I obtained by applying, to the flight of projectiles, the postulate of Sir Isaac Newton on the wave nature of moving bodies and his interpretation of the Snell’s law on refraction of waves.
The impressive outcomes, obtained solving exterior ballistics problems employing the fictive “projectile-wave and Snell’s law” model, demonstrate that the flight of objects can be quantitatively described using wave properties of particles.
