Abstract | ||||
ABSTRACT One of the main issues within aerospace and robotics applications is the Kinematics equations of guided missiles. Investigation and analysis of these equations in both homing and command guidance systems consider the missile as an immaterial/massless point moving with a known velocity. In addition, the nature of applications necessitates this process to be fast in computations and easy or concise in manipulation. Therefore, the objective is to reformulate these equations using the properties and the geometrical significance of Clifford algebra. This formulation may be easier and more obvious than the other traditional methods as it unites vectors of different planes into a single mathematical system with a comprehensive geometric significance. | ||||
