Özet:

This thesis involves modeling of an electromagnetic launcher (EML) by taking all of the variables that affect the system performance into consideration. The study includes deriving related electrical and kinematic equations and developing models based on these equations. Two models are built in different simulation programs to be able to analyze the system from different aspects. Models are verified by means of experimental results. An experimental setup is designed and implemented to represent a similar behavior to EML. The same system is simulated using two simulation models. Experimental and simulation results are compared and discussed.
