Need a couple of ODE's used in aerospace engineering

[julio432bz]

Homework Statement

I have an assignment where I must solve a coupled system of equations, with differential interdependencies (e.g. a system of ODEs) of dimension no less than three (e.g. in x; y and z). choose a system relevance to Aerospace Engineering, or some applied topic. You
must use your solution to predict or evaluate something useful.

Homework Equations

The Attempt at a Solution

I will probably have little trouble with solving the equations, but the problem is I am not able to find a set of equations fitting this description. I have tried for a couple of days now. Any suggestions or hints would be greatly appreciated! : )

I did a google search on System of ODEs in Aerospace, and got lots of good hits. Here's one for a university course:

The textbooks listed at the bottom of that page would likely be of help to you. You can check out your university library to look for them and similar materials.
