the Magnus Characteristics of Rotating Spherical Pro-

jectiles. Master of Science (Physical Education),

December, 1982, 87 pp., 8 tables, 3 illustrations, bibli-

ography, 23 titles.

Thirty trials of each of three roughness conditions

were examined. The first condition consisted of a baseball

pitched so that two of the roughness elements opposed the

flow. The second condition consisted of a pitched base-

ball with four of the roughness elements opposing the flow.

The third consisted of a pitched uniformly rough sphere.

The conclusions were that roughness elements increase

horizontal flight deviations when a baseball rotates about

a vertical axis; roughness elements on the surface of a

baseball may cause a decrease in the encountered drag

forces; linear velocity has a dominating effect on the

trajectory of a spinning baseball; previously developed

mathematical models do not adequately predict flight devia-

tions.

CHAPTER I

INTRODUCTION

A projected object which is both translating and ro-

tating will deviate from a hypothetical parabolic pathway

due to the presence of air resistance (Magnus, 1853). The

deviation in flight is caused by the spin of the object and

is called the Magnus or Robins effect (Magnus, 1853;

Robins, 1842; Jacobsen, 1973). Robins (1842) noted that

the spin imparted to cannon balls resulted in accuracy

losses. Magnus (1853) successfully demonstrated, with ro-

tating bodies, the presence of pressure inequalities and a

resulting eccentric force.

One of the factors influencing the motion of a solid

object through a fluid is the nature of the boundary layer

of the fluid surrounding the object. There exists five

forms of boundary layer flow; i.e., creeping flow, laminar

flow, turbulent flow, partially turbulent flow and super-

sonic flow.

Creeping flow occurs with a non-viscous fluid and is

characterized by no boundary layer separation. Martin

(1955) found that the Magnus effect for creeping flow was

caused by an assymetrical fluid boundary layer. That is,

the portion of a rotating body that is moving in relative

opposition to the incoming fluid carries with it a thicker

fluid boundary layer than does the portion which is moving

in the same direction as the incoming flow. This, in

effect, creates a new body on which the point of applica-

tion of the resultant fluid drag force is eccentric to the

center of gravity. The resultant eccentricity of the force

causes the object to deviate from a normal path.

Laminar flow exists when the boundary layer separation

point(s) occurs in a region of the object not presented to

the flow. Briggs (1959) studied lateral deflections of

baseballs and smooth spheres caused by the Magnus effect in

primarily laminar flow. He stated, that in the case of the

baseballs, the spin imparted to the ball causes an in-

equality of pressures and affects the general flow field

around the body. This, in accordance with the Bernoulli

principle, causes a flight deviation from a hypothetical

parabolic path. Briggs found a negative Magnus effect oc-

curred for smooth spheres. This effect, to date, has not

been completely explained.

In turbulent flow, boundary layer separation occurs in

the region of the object presented to the flow. It is

achieved when the Reynolds number exceeds an experimentally

determined critical value. This critical value is achieved

under conditions of high fluid velocity and/or motion of

the object through a highly viscous fluid (Daily &

Harleman, 1966).

Partially turbulent flow occurs when an immersed body

is assymetrical or a symetrical body is rotating in a

fluid. Until a critical Reynolds number is reached, the

boundary layer around a nonspinning cylinder separates at

approximately 82 degrees from the forward stagnation point

(Jacobsen, 1973; Krahan, 1956). The separation point moves

downstream to about 130 degrees as the Reynolds number in-

creases and the fluid flow becomes turbulent. The location

of the separation points are affected when the Reynolds

number approaches a critical value and an immersed cylinder

begins to rotate. On the portion of the cylinder opposing

the flow, the separation point moves toward the forward

stagnation point. The separation point of the side moving

in the same direction remains located at 82 degrees, and

the fluid flow in that portion of the body remains laminar.

This causes a resultant lift force in the opposite direc-

tion to the classical Magnus effect (Jacobsen, 1973).

Supersonic flow differs from turbulent flow in that

shock waves are created. As the critical Mach number is

exceeded, the flow in the region of the shock waves becomes

non-isentropic. As this critical Mach number is exceeded,

drag forces increase (Hughes & Brighton, 1967). Efforts

to reduce drag forces at supersonic speeds include the

"swept-wing" design of aircraft (Daily & Harleman, 1966).

The separation points and fluid flow conditions are as

illustrated in Figure 1.

Of the five fluid flow conditions only laminar, tur-

bulent and partially turbulent flow are likely to be en-

countered in sports situations. Turbulent flow primarily

occurs in ballistic activities. For example, Jacobsen

(1973) reviewed the literature pertaining to ballistics and

concluded that the dynamic stability of a bullet is depen-

dent upon the location of the center of gravity, shape and

angular velocity about the longitudinal axis. Borg (1980)

discussed the potential use of an immersed revolving

cylinder to aid in the steering of large ocean vessels.

The literature pertaining to partially turbulent flow is

scarce. Partially turbulent flow is rarely encountered al-

though its presence has been recorded (Briggs, 1959).

In the majority of sport settings, the fluid flow is

laminar. In addition, in many activities spin is purposely

imparted to a ball to cause flight deviations.

Barnaby (1978) discussed the importance of spin in

tennis and stated that

On any surface, the flight of the ball through theair can and must be controlled by spin whenever theball is played vigorously enough so that gravity willnot do the job. That is why topspin should be thefirst new skill acquired by an intermediate.

Gray (1974), in discussing the experimental results of

Plagenhoef (1970), claimed that if no spin was imparted to

a typical served ball, the ball would land well beyond the

opponent's baseline. In the game of soccer, a predominance

of sidespin is often used to project the ball around

obstacles. This "bending ball" has been described by

Miller (1979). In the game of golf, the inclination of the

clubface (i.e., its loft) causes the ball to be projected

with a backspin (Hay, 1978; Davies, 1949). The magnitude

of the spin can approach 8000 revolutions per minute and

cause an increase in the range of the ball up to 50 percent

(Chase, 1981; Davies, 1949). Both desirable and undesi-

rable slices or hooks also result from the Magnus effect.

Chase (1981) explains that when the spin imparted to the

golfball has an axis of rotation deviating from horizontal,

deviation in flight will occur to an amount which is de-

pendent upon the deviation of the axis.

In baseball, the ability of a pitcher is perhaps the

most important factor in determining the success of a team.

Reiff (1971) claims that 65 to 85 percent of winning base-

ball depends on a pitcher's ability. The quality of a

pitcher is, in turn, dependent upon an ability to both vary

the linear velocity of the pitches and to deviate the ball

from normal projectile flight. In most situations, this

deviation is accomplished by imparting spin to the ball to

create a Magnus effect. An indication of the amount that a

ball can deviate from normal projectile flight has been

reported by Briggs (1959). Lateral deflections ranging

from 6.1 inches to 26.0 inches for a spinning baseball in a

six foot drop across windtunnel streams were reported.

Selin (1959) reported maximum vertical deviations of 2.4

feet and horizontal deviations of 2.1 feet for a variety of

spinning pitches. Attempts have been made to mathe-

matically model a pitched baseball. Krieghbaum and Hunt

(1978) developed a mathematical model to simulate pitches

of various linear and angular velocities. The results of

their approximated deviations from normal projectile flight

yielded maximum values more than 50 percent lower than

those reported by either Selin (1959) or Briggs (1959). A

factor not considered in the Krieghbaum and Hunt model was

the roughened surface of the ball. Hay (1978) claims that

the variables effecting the drag force on a projectile are

the velocity of the flow, the surface area of the body, the

characteristics of the fluid involved, the cross-sectional

area presented to the flow, and the smoothness of the sur-

face of the body. The effects of the smoothness of the

body on drag forces have been examined by Watts and Sawyer

(1975). In discussing the aerodynamics of a knuckleball,

the authors stated:

There are two possible mechanisms for the erraticlateral force that causes the fluttering flight of theknuckleball. A fluctuating lateral force can resultfrom a portion of the strings being located just atthe point where the boundary layer separation occurs.A far more likely situation is that the ball spinsvery slowly, changing the location of the roughnesselements (strings), and thereby causing a nonsymmetricvelocity distribution and a shifting of the wake.

The differences between the reported mathematical and

experimental data indicate that a need exists to further

clude a consideration of the roughness of the spheres.

tating spheres.

CHAPTER II

REVIEW OF LITERATURE

In many sports activities the performer and/or sport

implement is projected into the air. According to Hay

(1978), the factors affecting projectile flight are the

velocity of the flow, the surface area of the body, the

characteristics of the fluid involved, the cross-sectional

area presented to the flow, and the smoothness of the sur-

face of the projectile. The fluid resistance forces may be

of sufficient magnitude to cause appreciable deviations

from a parabolic flight path. The observed airborne motion

of a badminton shuttlecock provides an obvious example of a

non-parabolic trajectory (Hay, 1978). In some activities

the sport implements are projected in such a way to pur-

posely cause flight deviations. These flight deviations

commonly result from imparted rotations. For example, in

the game of soccer, the sidespin of the ball permits it to

travel around obstacles (Miller, 1979; Hay, 1978).

One of the major factors influencing the fluid force

acting on a projectile is the nature of the boundary layer

of fluid surrounding the object. There exists five forms

of boundary layer flow; i.e., creeping flow, laminar flow,

turbulent flow, partially turbulent flow and supersonic

flow.

Creeping flow is characterized by no boundary layer

separation. It occurs only in a non-viscous fluid or at

extremely low velocities (Jacobsen, 1973). Martin (1955)

found that the Magnus effect for creeping flow was caused

by an assymetrical fluid boundary layer. That is, the por-

tion of a rotating body that is moving in relative opposi-

tion to the flow carries with it a thicker fluid boundary

layer than does the portion moving in the same direction as

the flow. This creates a new body upon which the point of

application of the resultant fluid drag force is eccentric

to the center of gravity of the body. This eccentricity

of the resultant force causes the object to deviate from a

hypothetical parabolic path.

Laminar flow exists when the boundary layer separation

occurs in a region of the object not presented to the flow.

Briggs (1959) studied lateral deflections of baseballs and

smooth spheres caused by the Magnus effect in primarily

laminar flow. He stated, that in the case of the base-

balls, the spin imparted to the ball causes an inequality

in pressures and affects the general flow field around the

body. This, in accordance with the Bernoulli principle,

causes the deflection from a hypothetical parabolic path.

Briggs, however, found that an unexplained negative Magnus

effect occurred for smooth spheres.

In turbulent flow, boundary layer separation occurs in

the region of the object presented to the flow. For a

sphere this separation occurs at an angle of 130 degrees

from the forward stagnation point (Jacobsen, 1973). Tur-

bulent flow is achieved when the so-called Reynolds number

exceeds a critical value. This critical Reynolds number is

achieved under conditions of high fluid velocity and/or

motion of the object through viscous fluid (Daily & Harle-

man, 1966).

Partially turbulent flow occurs only when the immersed

body is assymetrical or a symetrical body is rotating in a

fluid. Under laminar flow conditions, boundary layer

separation occurs at 82 degrees from the forward stagnation

point. When the Reynolds number approaches the critical

value and a symetrical body begins to spin, the boundary

layer separation in the portion of the body moving in rela-

tive opposition to the flow moves downstream to 130 de-

grees. The portion of the body moving in the same direc-

tion as the flow remains laminar with boundary layer

separation occurring at 82 degrees from the forward stag-

nation point. This causes a resultant lift force in the

opposite direction to the classical Magnus effect (Jacob-

sen, 1973). This force is commonly referred to as the

negative Magnus effect (Briggs, 1959; Jacobsen, 1973).

When the velocity of the flow becomes extremely high,

the flow can become supersonic. Flow becomes supersonic

when a critical Mach number is exceeded. As this Mach

number is exceeded, shock waves are created within the flow

which causes the flow to become non-isentropic. In super-

sonic flow, fluid drag increases due to the large fric-

tional forces (Hughes & Brighton, 1967). Daily and Harle-

man (1966) discussed efforts in aviation to reduce drag

forces at supersonic speeds by the use of "swept-wing"

designs.

Of the five fluid flow conditions only laminar, tur-

bulent and partially turbulent flow are likely to be en-

countered in sports situations. Turbulent flow primarily

occurs in ballistic activities. For example, Jacobsen

(1973) reviewed the literature pertaining to ballistics and

concluded that the dynamic stability of a bullet is depen-

dent upon the location of the center of gravity, shape and

angular velocity about the longitudinal axis. Borg (1980)

discussed the potential use of an immersed revolving cylin-

der to aid in the steering of large ocean vessels. The

literature pertaining to partially turbulent flow is

scarce. Partially turbulent flow is rarely encountered

although its presence has been recorded (Briggs, 1959).

In the majority of sport settings, the fluid form is lami-

nar. Moreover in many activities spin is purposely im-

parted to a ball to cause flight deviations.

described by Miller (1979). In the game of golf, the in-

clination of the clubface (i.e., its loft) causes the ball

to be projected with a backspin (Hay, 1978; Davies, 1949).

The magnitude of the spin can approach 8000 revolutions

per minute and cause an increase in the range of the ball

up to 50 percent (Chase, 1981; Davies, 1949). Both de-

sirable and undesirable slices or hooks also result from

the Magnus effect. Chase (1981) explains that when the

spin imparted to the golf ball has an axis of rotation de-

viating from horizontal, deviation in flight will occur to

an amount which is dependent upon the deviation of the

axis.

In baseball, the ability of a pitcher is perhaps the

most important factor determining the success of a team.

spinning pitches. Watts and Sawyer (1975) examined the

factors causing the unpredictable motion of a knuckleball.

The authors stated that

There are two possible mechanisms for the erraticlateral force that causes the fluttering flight ofthe knuckleball. A fluctuating lateral force canresult from a portion of the strings being locatedjust at the point where the boundary layer separationoccurs. A far more likely situation is that the ballspins very slowly, changing the location of the rough-ness elements (strings), and thereby causing a non-symmetric velocity distribution and a shifting of thewake.

Attempts have been made to mathematically model both

the path of a pitched baseball and the forces acting on a

sphere in a fluid. Krieghbaum and Hunt (1978) developed a

mathematical model for a pitched baseball. Using the

parameters described by Selin (1959) the following model

was constructed:

dV = K Cd Vx + C1 (V cosB + Vz sinAsinB)

dV = K C V + C1 (V sinBcosA - V cosB)y d y z x

and dV = K C V + C1 (V sinBsinA - V sinBcosA)z d z x y

where K = pVAdt/(2m).

The displacement in each direction during the interval

dt was given as dS. = (V. + dV.) dt where j = x, y or z.J J J

The sum of the dS. terms over the time of flight of theJ

ball was given as the total displacement in the direction

of j. The model took the following factors into account:

A = horizontal angle - defined as the "angle between the

direction of the pitch and the axis of rotation

measured in a counterclockwise direction from the

direction of the pitch to the axis of rotation"

(Krieghbaum & Hunt, 1978).

B = vertical angle - defined as the "angle between a verti-

cal line to the center of the ball and the axis of

rotation measured from the upward-directed vertical to

the axis of rotation" (Krieghbaum & Hunt, 1978).

Cd = coefficient of drag

C1 = coefficient of lift

Fd = drag force

F 1 = lift force

F = gravitational force

dt = change in time

m = mass of the ball

V = velocity (subscripts indicate direction)

A = area presented to the flow

p = density of the air

g = acceleration due to gravity

This model yields deviations over 50 percent less than

those reported by either Selin (1959) or Briggs (1959).

Two possible causes for the difference between actual and

hypothetical values for flight deviation are the exclusion

of a roughness factor in the model and no consideration for

the magnitude of angular velocity. The necessity for in-

cluding a roughness factor has been implied by Hay (1978).

Oseen, as referenced by Rubinow and Keller (1963),

developed a formula for the drag force acting on a totally

immersed translating sphere. The developed equation was

Fd = -6lrpV(l+3R/8) where Fd is the force of drag, r is the

radius of the sphere, p is viscosity, Vis the velocity

vector and R is the Reynolds number p IVr/ where p is the

density of the air.

In the above equation the first term -6TrV was calcu-

lated by Stokes, as referenced by Rubinow and Keller (1963).

From this information, Rubinow and Keller (1963) developed

a mathematical model for the forces acting on a rotating

and translating sphere. Their results yielded the fol-

lowing formula:

Ft = Fd + Fl = -6'3rpV(l+3R/8) + Trr3p(0 X V)

where 0 is the angular velocity vector. These relation-

ships were confirmed by Hess (1968). This model differs

from that of Krieghbaum and Hunt (1978) in that it provides

a more comprehensive consideration of the factors affecting

the nature of the fluid and, in particular, it takes into

account the magnitude of angular velocity.

In summary, a review of literature revealed that very

few scientific studies have been concerned with the fluid

forces acting on a pitched baseball. Attempts have been

made to measure flight deviations caused by the Magnus

effect and to model the forces acting on spheres and base-

balls travelling through a fluid. Discrepancies between

experimentally and mathematically obtained deviations in-

dicate a need to include a roughness factor in the models.

PROCEDURES

The purpose of this study was to examine the effects

of roughness elements on the Magnus characteristics of

rotating spheres.

Instrumentation

Cinematographical Instrumentation

A high-speed 16mm motion picture camera (Teledyne

Camera Systems, Model DBM-54) was used to obtain film

records of each trial. The camera was positioned 2.2

meters above the level at which the ball was to be pitched.

Appropriate levelling techniques were used to ensure that

the optical axis of the camera corresponded with a verti-

cal axis. The operating speed of the camera was 500 frames

per second. Temporal scales were obtained by means of a

timing light generator used in conjunction with the motion

picture camera. In order to make it possible to determine

the release angle of the ball, a mirror was placed thirty

centimeters to the right, and at the same vertical height,

of the anticipated initial flight of the ball. The mirror

was oriented at approximately 0.8 radians. One number

coded card was included within the field of view of the

camera and recorded on film for each trial. The number was

subsequently used to identify the trial.

Pitching Machine

An automatic pitching machine (Jugs Curveball Pitcher,

JoPaul Industries, Inc., Tualatin, Oregon) was used to

deliver balls towards a measurement board. The height of

release of the ball was fixed at 2.59 meters which corre-

sponded to the average height of release of a pitched ball

(Williams, 1971).

Projectiles

The projectiles used during the testing session were

ten baseballs (Rawlings R. 0., St. Louis, Missouri) and a

rubber sphere of uniform roughness.

Measurement Board

A board was anchored 17.1 meters from the release

point of the ball. This distance corresponded to the dis-

tance from a pitchers mound to home plate. A cartesian

coordinate system was marked on the board. The origin of

the coordinate system was located at the expected horizon-

tal landing point of the ball neglecting all fluid and

gravitational forces and at ground level. The board was

coated with chalk which permitted the determination of the

contact point of the ball.

Testing Procedures

All of the trials for the study were conducted during

a one-day filming session. The testing location was the

Men's Gymnasium of the North Texas State University

(Denton, Texas). The location of the testing instruments

was as shown in Figure 2. The filming session occurred at

a time when all air conditioning and heating systems were

inoperative and the building was closed. These conditions

were necessary to minimize extraneous air turbulence.

Prior to and at thirty-minute intervals during the

filming session, the temperature and barometric pressure at

the testing site were determined and recorded. These re-

corded values were converted at a later time to approximate

values for both the density and kinematic viscosity of the

air.

To assist in determining angular velocity, the balls

were marked with black dots approximately 0.5 centimeters

in diameter. To ensure that at least one point on the ball

was visible at all times, the landmarks were placed such

that the largest distance between any two marks was ap-

proximately four centimeters.

Ten trials at each of three pitching machine settings

for each of three roughness conditions were recorded on

film. The first condition consisted of a baseball pitched

in a manner that two of the roughness elements opposed the

incoming flow. The second condition consisted of a pitched

flow. The third consisted of a pitched rotating uniformly

rough sphere. An illustration of the roughness conditions

is shown in Figure 3. Any trials in which the pitched ball

did not strike the measurement board were eliminated from

this study. After each trial, the location of the ball

with respect to the origin of the measurement board was

recorded.

Data Acquisition Procedures

For each successful trial, the initial portion of the

flight of the ball was analyzed with the aid of a Lafayette

16mm Analyzer (Lafayette Instrument Co., Lafayette,

Indiana) in conjunction with a Numonics Electronic Graphics

Digitizer (Model 1200, Numonics Corp., North Wales,

Pennsylvania), which was interfaced to a Tektronix 4052

Graphics Calculator (Tektronix Inc., Beaverton, Oregon).

The motion of the ball for three frames in which the pro-

jected image in the mirror was visible was analyzed. The

cartesian coordinates of each of the following landmarks

on the ball were digitized and recorded for all film

frames:

1. Any three landmarks on the circumference of the

ball

2. Any three landmarks on the circumference of the

ball's projected image in the mirror

3. One landmark on the surface of the ball.

The three landmarks on the circumference of the ball

were used to determine the trajectory of the center of

gravity of the ball in the X-Y plane. The three landmarks

on the circumference of the ball's projected image on the

mirror were used to determine the trajectory of the center

of gravity of the ball in the X-Z plane. The derivative of

each of the component displacements of the ball was com-

puted to determine the initial linear velocity of the ball

in the component directions. The angular velocity of the

ball was computed from the displacement history of the

landmark. The values of barometric pressure and tempera-

ture were used to calculate the density of the air and the

kinematic viscosity of the air as prescribed by the Hand-

book of Chemistry and Physics (CRC, 1978). These variables

were then used in a computer program which used numerical

approximation techniques to give predicted values for

deviation from normal projectile flight.

The formula used to compute angular velocity appears

in Appendix A. A listing of the computer program used to

compute the angular and linear velocity of the balls appears

in Appendix B. The mathematical development of the mathe-

matical model developed by Rubinow and Keller (1963) for

numerical approximation of hypothetical landing points

appears in Appendix C. A listing of the computer program

for the landing points of the projectiles appears in

Statistical Analysis

A one way analysis of variance was used to determine

if differences existed in component flight deviations be-

tween roughness conditions. A statistical analysis

utilizing mixed design repeated measures analysis of vari-

ance procedures with the roughness conditions serving as

the non-repeating factor was conducted to determine whether

or not interactions existed between roughness conditions

and the method of determining component landing points.

The actual and hypothetical component landing points served

as dependent variables. Pearson product-moment correlation

coefficients were computed to ascertain the relationship

between the component landing locations for each condition

and the hypothetical landing locations. Multiple linear

regression was used to determine if the component landing

points could be accurately predicted using statistical

techniques. The component initial and angular velocities

for each condition were entered as the independent mea-

sures. Pearson product-moment correlation coefficients

were computed between the component initial linear veloci-

ties for each of the roughness conditions.

RESULTS

The purpose of this study was to examine the effects

of roughness elements on the Magnus characteristics of

rotating spheres.

Environment and Projectiles

The temperature and barametric pressure were deter-

mined during the data collection session. Both remained

constant and yielded values of 1.84 X 10 mPl and

1.193 kg/m3 for air viscosity and air density respectively.

The ten baseballs used during the testing session ranged

in mass from 146.5 grams to 150.75 grams (M = 148.56 grams)

with radii of 3.689 centimeters. The rubber sphere of

uniform roughness had a mass of 94.78 grams and a radius of

3.598 centimeters.

Results

The mean component flight deviations of the projec-

tiles for each of the roughness conditions are shown in

Table I. All of the component deviations are expressed in

differences between the component landing points on the

(p<0.05) between both of the baseball conditions and the

The flight deviations in the X- direction for the

baseball conditions were due to a relatively large Magnus

effect whereas for the uniformly rough sphere this effect

was minimal. The mean component angular velocities for

each condition are shown in Table II. The results show

that the resultant axis of rotation for all conditions was

primarily oriented in the Z- direction. A statistical

analysis revealed a significant difference (p<0.05) between

the baseball with four roughness elements opposing the flow

and the uniformly rough sphere. The finding of significant

differences between both baseball conditions and the uni-

formly rough sphere for the X- component of flight devia-

tion, and the lack of a significant difference between the

baseball with two roughness elements and the uniformly

rough sphere for the Z- component of angular velocity in-

dicates that differences in the Magnus effect were not

primarily due to differences in angular velocity. A sum-

mary table for the statistical analysis of the angular

velocities appear in Appendix G.

The mean magnitude of the initial linear velocity for

the baseball with two roughness elements, the baseball with

four roughness elements and the uniformly rough sphere were

34.93 meters per second, 36.04 meters per second and 44.28

meters per second respectively. The greater velocity mag-

nitude for the uniformly rough sphere could have con-

tributed to a reduced Magnus effect for this condition.

However, the Reynolds number for this magnitude of velocity

was approximately one-third of the critical value. This

suggests that a classical Magnus effect should have been

present. The reported small flight deviation in the X-

direction was therefore probably not primarily due to a

greater linear velocity but instead to the absence of

roughness elements.

The reported flight deviations in the Z- direction can

in part be attributed to differences in the masses of the

baseballs and the uniformly rough sphere. That is, the

drag forces acting on the relatively smaller mass of the

uniformly rough sphere prolonged the time of flight and

therefore extended the gravitational effects. However, if

the differences in mass are normalized, the Z- component of

flight deviation for the baseballs should have been 1.93

times that recorded. It is therefore possible that the

roughness elements increased the turbulence of the boundary

layer which decreased the fluid drag force and thus de-

creased the time of flight. A decrease in the time of

flight would reduce the gravitational effects and therefore

the flight deviation.

for this condition, the equations developed by Rubinow and

the statistical analyses appear in Appendices H and I.

Pearson product-moment correlation coefficients cal-

culated between the actual and hypothetical component

landing points for all of the conditions indicate the exis-

tence of an overall positive relationship. However, the

finding of some significant differences between the actual

and hypothetical component displacements suggests that the

predictive equations are of questionable practical value

for the conditions examined in this study. There exists

the possibility that a roughness factor should be included

in the mathematical model. The correlation coefficients

Multiple linear regressions were used to determine if

using statistical techniques. The component initial linear

and angular velocities for each condition were entered as

the independent measures. The results of the analyses ap-

analyses provided a better prediction of the actual landing

points than did the model developed by Rubinow and Keller

(1963). The order of entry of the independent variables

into the regression analyses is shown in Table VII. The

results show, that with the exception of the two roughness

elements condition, the X- component of linear velocity

provides the greatest contribution towards predicting both

SUMMARY AND CONCLUSIONS

Introduction

The purpose of this study was to examine the effects

of roughness elements on the Magnus characteristics of

rotation spheres.

The motion of a totally immersed and translating ob-

ject is affected by both gravitational and fluid forces

(Hay, 1978). For an object which is also rotating, one

component of the fluid forces is the lift caused by the

Magnus or Robins effect (Magnus, 1953; Robins, 1842). One

of the major factors influencing the fluid forces acting

on a totally immersed object is the nature of the boundary

layer surrounding the object. Of the various fluid flow

conditions, only laminar, turbulent or partially turbulent

flow are encountered in the majority of sport situations.

Laminar flow exists when the boundary layer separation oc-

curs in a region not presented to the flow (Jacobsen,

1973). In turbulent flow, boundary layer separation occurs

in the region of the object presented to the flow. Par-

tially turbulent flow, present only when the immersed

object is assymetrical or rotating, is characterized by

laminar flow in one region of the object and turbulent flow

in another region. This type of flow can cause a resultant

lift force in the opposite direction to the classical

Magnus effect (Jacobsen, 1973).

In many sports, the performer imparts a spin to the

sport implement to cause flight deviations. In baseball,

the pitcher uses the Magnus effect to deviate the ball

from a hypothetical parabolic pathway. Briggs (1959) re-

ported horizontal flight deviations of up to twenty-six

inches for a spinning baseball. The effects of roughness

elements on the flight of a baseball with little or no

angular velocity have been described by Watts and Sawyer

(1975).

Rubinow and Keller (1963) and Kreighbaum and Hunt

(1978) developed mathematical models to describe both the

trajectory of a pitched sphere and the nature of the acting

fluid forces. However, it would appear as though no at-

tempts have been made to experimentally validate the

models.

Procedures

Thirty trials of each of three roughness conditions

were recorded on film. An appropriately oriented plane

mirror ensured that both superior and lateral perspectives

of each of the conditions were simultaneously recorded.

The first condition consisted of a baseball pitched in

such a manner that two of the roughness elements opposed

the incoming flow. The second condition consisted of a

pitched baseball with four of the roughness elements op-

posing the flow. The third consisted of a pitched uni-

formly rough sphere. The initial linear velocities of the

projectiles varied from 27.3 meters per second to 51.9

meters per second and angular velocity varied from 127.8

radians per minute to 11558 radians per minute. Any trials

in which the pitched ball did not strike a measurement

board were repeated. Any trials in which both images of

the ball were not visible for three successive film frames

were eliminated from the study. After each trial, the

location of the landing point of the ball with respect to

the origin of the measurement board was recorded. During

the testing session, recordings were made of the ambient

barometric pressure and temperature.

The motion of the ball for each successful trial was

analyzed. The cartesian coordinates of each of the fol-

lowing landmarks or locations were digitized and recorded

for three film frames:

1. Any three points on the circumference of the ball;

2. Any three points on the circumference of the

projected image of the ball in the mirror;

3. One marked point on the surface of the ball.

The three points on the circumference of the ball were used

to determine the trajectory of the center of gravity of

the ball in the X - Y plane. The three points on the

Page 53: Igo, fY63 - UNT Digital Library/67531/metadc504103/...the flow, the separation point moves toward the forward stagnation point. The separation point of the side moving in the same

47

circumference of the balls in the mirror were used to de-

termine the trajectory of the ball in the Y - Z plane.

The derivative of each of the component displacements of

the ball were computed to determine the initial linear

velocity of the ball in the component directions. The an-

gular velocity of the ball was computed from the displace-

ment history of the marked point on the surface of the ball.

The values of the barometric pressure and temperature were

used to compute the density and kinematic viscosity of the

air. The components of initial linear and angular velo-

city, the mass and radius of the balls and the density and

kinematic viscosity of the air were input into a computer

program which utilized numerical approximation techniques

to derive predicted values for deviation from normal pro-

jectile flight.

A one way analysis of variance was used to determine

if differences existed in component flight deviations be-

tween roughness conditions. A statistical analysis

utilizing mixed design repeated measures analysis of vari-

ance procedures with the roughness conditions serving as

the non-repeating factor was conducted to determine whether

or not interactions existed between roughness conditions

and the method of determining component landing points.

The actual and hypothetical component landing points served

as dependent variables. Pearson product-moment correlation

coefficients were computed to ascertain the relationship

between the component landing locations for each condition

and the hypothetical component landing locations. Mul-

tiple linear regression was used to determine if the com-

ponent landing points could be accurately predicted using

statistical techniques. The component initial linear and

angular velocities for each condition were entered as the

independent measures. Pearson product-moment correlations

coefficients were computed between the component initial

linear velocities for each of the roughness conditions.

Results

Statistically significant differences were found be-

tween both of the baseball conditions and the uniformly

rough sphere for both the X- and Z- flight deviations. The

flight deviations in the X-direction for the baseball con-

ditions were found to be due to the presence of a rela-

tively large Magnus effect. The differences in flight

deviations between the baseball conditions and the uni-

formly rough sphere could not be accounted for by differ-

ences in the Z-component of angular velocity and were

therefore attributed to differences in the roughness of the

surface of the conditions. The differences in the Z-

component of flight deviation can be attributed, in part,

to the relatively small mass of the uniformly rough sphere

and an increase in boundary layer turbulence for the base-

ball conditions.

Statistically significant differences were found be-

tween some of the actual and hypothetical component landing

points despite a predominance of significant relationships

between these parameters. It would therefore appear as

though the prediction formulae developed by Rubinow and

Keller (1963) take into account appropriate input para-

meters but provide inadequate estimations of flight devia-

tions.

A prediction of the actual component landing points

using multiple linear regression techniques provided better

estimations than the Rubinow and Keller model (1963) al-

though the practical usefulness of the derived results is

questionable.

Conclusions

Based on the results of the study, the following con-

clusions appear to be warranted.

1. The presence of roughness elements on the surface

of a baseball increases the horizontal flight

deviation when the baseball rotates about a verti-

cal axis.

2. The presence of roughness elements on the surface

of a baseball may increase the turbulence of the

boundary layer and therefore cause a decrease in

the encountered drag forces.

3. Linear velocity is the parameter which has the

dominating effect on the trajectory of a spinning

baseball.

4. The mathematical model developed by Rubinow and

Keller (1963) does not adequately predict flight

deviations.

Recommendations

Based on the results of this study, an additional

examination of the effect of roughness elements on the

Magnus characteristics of rotating spheres would seem ap-

propriate. In particular, future attention should be

directed towards minimizing all sources of measurement

error. The recommendations for future studies are there-

fore made:

1. An examination of the effect of roughness elements

on the Magnus characteristics of rotating spheres

using a wind tunnel to control fluid velocity, a

motor drive to control the angular velocity of the

spheres and transducers to directly measure the

lift and drag forces;

2. An examination of the effects of varying roughness

configurations on flight deviations of those pro-

jectiles used in sports in which the rules permit

either modifications or variations of the surface

of the projectiles;

the linear and angular velocity components for

achieving the objective of specific skill which

FORMULAS FOR THE COMPUTATION OF ANGULAR VELOCITY

Given that the equation for a plane through P1= (x1 ,yi,zi)

with some normal vector <a,b,c> is

a(x-x) + b(y-y1 ) + c(z-z 1 ) = 0

A normal vector <a,b,c> given three points

P1 = (xiy 1 ,zi) , P 2 = (x2,y2,z 2 ) and P 3 = (x 3 ,y3,z 3 )

can be found with the cross product of P1P2 and P1 P 3 :

i j k

N = P1P 2 x P1P 3 = x2-x1 y2-y1 Z2-Z1X 3 -X1 Y3-Y1 Z3-Z1

= [(y2-y1) (z3-z 1 ) - (y3-y7) (z2 -z1 )] i

+ [ (x3 -x1 ) (Z2-Z1) - (x2-x 1 ) (z3-zi)] j

+ [ (x 2 -x 1 ) (y3-yL) - (x 3 -x 1 ) (y2-y1)] k.

Letting N = <a,b,c> where:

(y2-yl) (z 3 -zi) - (y3-y1) (Z2-Zl) = a

(x 3 -xi) (Z2-Zi) - (x2-x 1 ) (z3-z1 ) = b

(x2-x 1 ) (y3-yi) - (x 3 -x 1 ) (y2-yl) = c

the equation for the plane containing P1, P2 , P3 becomes

a(x-x1 ) + b(y-y1) + c(z-z 1 ) = 0

The three points P1, P2 and P3 also define a circle with

the center at (xc 'c'zc). The intersection of the per-

pendicular bisectors, that lie in the same plane with

P1 , P2 and P3 , of any two chords connecting two of the

points define that center (xc 'c'zc). The midpoints of

the chords PiP2 and PiP3 are given by

M2 = X+ X2 y1+ 2 Z1 + Z2)22 ' 2

and M3 = (Xi+ X 3 y+ y3 Z1 +Z3)2 ' 2 ' 2

The dot product of two vectors that are perpendicular to

each other is 0. Thus, a perpendicular bisector of

P1P2 , M2C, dotted with P1 P2 is 0:

(1) P1 P2 ' M 2 C = (x 2 -x1 ) (X+X2 - x c)+ (y2-yi) (Y12Y2 y c

+ (Z2-Zi) (ZiZ2 - zc) = 0

Also, P1 P3 dotted with M3C, a perpendicular bisector of

PiP3 , is 0:

(2) P1 P3 - M3 C = (x 3 -x 1 ) (Xi+X3 - x)2 c

+ (y3-y1 ) (y1 y23 -c + (z 3-z1 ) (Zl+Z3 - zc) = 0

where C = (xc ,yc,zc)

If the point C lies on the same plane with P1,P2 and P3

(3) a(x -x 1 ) + b(yc-y1 ) + c(zc-z1 ) = 0.

(1) F =-6iryV(l+3pIvr) = -6irryV - 4-r pIVlV

(2) (3) FL = ir 3 p(Qxv) and F = mg

where

r = radius of the ball Q = angular velocityp = density of the air V = linear velocityp = viscosity of the airm = mass of the ballg = acceleration due to gravity = -9.8066 m/sec 2

(4) (5) (6) (7) Letting B = -6rrp, C = (-4) ('rpr 2 ), D = rrr3 p

and E = mg

(8) (9) (10) FD = BV+CIVIV

(11) Ftotal

FL = D (I2xV) I = E
