13. Lurch 5 Linear—add 3-D motion of body
The model and its justification
Having added 3-D motion to the large fragments in Lurch
4 Linear, we now try the same for the body. We can neglect the component of the
momentum into or out of the plane of the Z-film because are dealing only with
X-momentum. But we cannot neglect that component of the kinetic energy, because
the equation for conservation of total energy uses total kinetic energy. As
happened when adding the 3-D component of the fragments, the 3-D component of
the body's KE hardly changes the answer at all. In fact, the previous -1.02 ft s-1 for the default values of variables remains the same here. This the 3-D
motion of the body is an insignificant term in the overall equation.
The equations calculate the speed of the rearward lurch of
the upper
body from the bullet, the body (in 3-D), the cloud (in 3-D), and the large
fragments (also in 3-D).
Solving the simultaneous equations
The three-dimensionality of the body's kinetic energy is
expressed by the term fkebody, which is similar in form and
function to fkefrag. We assume a range of 1–1.4
and a starting value of 1.2.

Sensitivity analysis
This sensitivity analysis is practically identical to
the one for Lurch 4 Linear. The new term, fkebody, has
undetectable sensitivity and range of effect.

These sensitivities and effects are virtually the same as for Lurch 4 Linear. The new term, fkebody, has undetectable sensitivity and range of effect, i.e., counts for nothing. This is a consequence of the fact that the body gets virtually none of the final kinetic energy.
Summary
Adding three-dimensionality to the body's KE does not change the solution perceptibly, presumably because the body gets
almost none of the KE after the explosion (<0.1%). This is confirmed by the
undetectable sensitivity and range of effect for fkebody. The
two variables with the largest effects remain Qcl
(2.11 ft s-1) and mcloud (1.68 ft s-1).
Only two variables have medium effects, PE (0.73 ft s-1) and mbody
(0.51 ft s-1). Thus the cloud remains all-important to the solution.
