| dc.description.abstract | The path equation describing the minimum drag work first proposed by Pakdemirli is reconsidered (Pakdemirli, M. The drag work minimization path for a flying object with altitude-dependent drag parameters. Proceedings of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers, Part C, Journal of Mechanical Engineering Science 223 (5), 1113-1116 (2009)). The Lie group theory is applied to the general equation. The group classification with respect to an altitude-dependent arbitrary function is presented. Using the symmetries, the group-invariant solutions are determined, and the reduction of order is performed by the canonical coordinates. | |
