The purpose of the present study is to understand this puzzling motion. First, we observed a trajectory of a falling wetted circular cylinder suspended with a thread, from which the aerodynamic force coefficients were estimated. Using these values, trajectories of the flying dry and wetted soft tennis ball were simulated by a finite difference method. It was found that the wetted ball with topspin does not bend upward, but travels in a significantly flatter trajectory.}, pages = {9--15}, title = {濡れた表面をもつソフトテニスボールの飛翔特性}, volume = {35}, year = {2006}, yomi = {オゾノ, シゲヒラ and デグチ, アラタ} }
