% Compute the ballistic coefficient from a CAD model. Add a fourth argument to acount for shadowing. Type BallisticCoefficient for a demo. Since version 10. -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Form: b = BallisticCoefficient( cD, u, g, shadows ) -------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------ Inputs ------ cD (1,1) Drag coefficient u (3,1) Velocity unit vector g (1,1) CAD model ~ (1,1) Optional. If any value is provided, shadowing calculations will be performed using HSRCAD. ------- Outputs ------- b (1,1) Ballistic coefficent --------------------------------------------------------------------------
