Abstract
In analyzing the response of a missile launcher to the applied loads, an indication of certain trends and behaviors may be obtained by assuming a simplified mathematical model. In this report, the model is an elastically supported taut string, on which a mass is moving. The method employed in the analysis is similar to that used in T. & A. M. Report No. 135, University of Illinois, in which the string was considered to be unsupported. Analytical expressions are developed for the deflection under the particle, and simplifications arising when the elastic effect becomes negligible, or when the velocity of the mass along the string becomes constant, are discussed.
