Formula

Seems that since we've defined all the variables and their units for this, we probably should also include the formula. dougmc (talk) 14:32, 8 April 2008 (UTC)Reply

You should. I tried, but I couldn't access the pdf-documents. Thank you,--Erzbischof (talk) 09:56, 29 July 2008 (UTC)Reply

Searching wikipedia I found an older version of this article at User:Ziggle/Draft_of_Shock_Factor which states the formula

{\mbox{Shock Factor}}={\frac {\sqrt {W}}{R}}\cdot {\frac {1+\sin \phi }{2}}

If User:Ziggle can name his source, we should include it.--Erzbischof (talk) 10:04, 29 July 2008 (UTC)Reply

Old formula was correct. I found the source, and changed formula back 78.10.218.106 (talk) 07:33, 7 July 2018 (UTC).Reply
