3.5.3 Longitudinal and Lateral Models<br />
The 6 DOF equations <strong>of</strong> motion can in many cases be divided into two noninteracting<br />
(or lightly interacting) subsystems:<br />
Longitudinal subsystem: states u,w,q, and <br />
Lateral subsystem: states v,p,r, and <br />
This decomposition is good for slender bodies (large length/width ratio). Typical<br />
applications are aircraft, missiles, and submarines.<br />
