<system name="added-mass">

 <documentation>
  This system computes forces and moments due to added/virtual mass.
  The model is based on
  [Max M. Munk, "Aerodynamic forces on airship hulls", NACA report 184, 1924]
  and the introduction in
  [Christopher J. Atkinson, Robert G. Urso, "Modeling of Apparent Mass Effects
   for the Real-Time Simulation of a Hybrid Airship", AIAA Modeling and
   Simulation Technologies Conference, Aug 2006].

  Usage:

  Define the following properties:
    aero/constants/volume-ft3
    aero/constants/length-diameter-ft2          (length^2 + diameter^2)
    aero/constants/added-mass/k-axial           (all three are positive but
    aero/constants/added-mass/k-transverse       can be entered as negative
    aero/constants/added-mass/k-rotational       for backwards compatibility)
    aero/constants/added-mass/tweak-factor      (1.0 is the standard value)

    aero/constants/added-mass/k-traverse        (old misspelling, can be given
                                                 to work with older FlightGear)

  Define the following external forces and moments:

    <force name="added-mass-bx" frame="BODY">
     <location unit="">
      { AERORP }
     </location>
     <direction>

      <y> 0.0 </y>

  The old deprecated force based external moment implementation below is still
  supported.
