Experimental investigation of drag force, Magnus force and drag torque acting on rough sphere moving in calm water
Lukerchenko N., Keita I., Chára Z., Vlasák P.
pages 93 - +11p., full text

The paper describes the results of experiments with a rotating golf ball moving quasi-steadily in calm water. The motion of the ball was recorded on a digital video camera. The dimensionless drag force, Magnus force, and drag torque coefficients were determined from the comparison of the calculated translational and angular velocities and trajectory with experimental ones for the rough particle. The proper value of the correction coefficients were established from condition of the best fitting of the experimental trajectory by the calculated one.
