First of all I am trying to find a "derivation??" for the Magnus force that affects rotating cylinders and spheres passing moving through air.
By derivation, if it is not correct, I mean a proof, something showing how the function was created.
I have found the magnus force quite easily by searching through the web and it seems to be:
fm=S(v)ω^v
As I said I need some kind of equations leading to this formula.
Also I am wondering if anyone here is familiar with solving boundary layer equations (numerically) as I have a need for doing that but am unable to.
I understand my language is not perfect and I urge you to ask if there is something that is not fully understandable.
