Résumé

In this paper we provide an expression for the border of the safe domain associated with projectile trajectories in a medium with a quadratic drag force. The curve defining the safe domain is given in parametric coordinates involving some integrals. These integrals have to be evaluated numerically after solving an integral equation. We show that not all the trajectories are necessary to obtain the safe domain. © The Author(s) 2014.
