% Computes takeoff distance. Type TakeoffDistance for a demo. Since version 5. -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Form: sLO = TakeoffDistance( m, vLO, t, cL, cD0, muR, hB, d, rho ) -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------ Inputs ------ m (1,1) Mass (kg) vLO (1,1) Lift off velocity (m/s) cL (1,1) Lift coefficient cD0 (1,1) Drag coefficient muR (1,1) Rolling resistance hB (1,1) Altitude/wing span d (.) Drag data structure rho (1,1) Atmospheric density (kg/m^3) ------- Outputs ------- sLO (1,:) Takeoff distance (m) -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Reference: Anderson, J.
