Computational modelling of the aerodyanmics and flight mechanics of a boomerang

The returning boomerang is a singularly interesting device: when thrown spinning in a near-vertical plane, rather than travelling along a straight line, the boomerang turns continuously to the left and ultimately returns to its thrower. The return of the boomerang is caused by two types of gyroscopi...
