Abstract

This paper presents a method for the computation of trajectories of free flight of sheet type debris. The model suggested has been compared to other approaches obtaining results that serve to validate it; further comparisons are expected to be undertaken in the near future using experimental data that includes wind tunnel as well as full scale measurements. The series of comparisons made so far cover trajectories of flight in two dimensions only, although the model has been developed to predict three dimensional trajectories, which opens new perspectives for the study of wind-borne debris excited by controlled streams of wind.
