Procedure for the Semiautomatic Reduction of Experimental Data Digitized from Analog Tape

摘要

A procedure has been devised to process the experimental data which are recorded on wide-band, frequency-modulated tape recorders at the Interior Ballistics Division of the Ballistic Research Laboratory. The data are digitized using a minicomputer, transported to a mainframe, and then processed on the mainframe. Four FORTRAN IV programs have been written to do this processing. Separate programs are necessary because judgments must be made after each step before proceeding with the next.
