Summary. Measurements of lift, drag and pitching moment have been made on several model configurations for wing incidences up to 53 °. Tailplane and nacelle size and position were varied independently and the results ...
A general programme of tests on sweptback wings is being made in the high and lowspeed wind-tunnels of the Royal Aircraft Establishment to supplement existing data. Low-speed stability tests have been made on two wings of ...
Low-speed wind-tunnel tests have been made on two thin wings of aspect ratio 3 with 60-deg leading-edge sweep at the root. Both wings show large forward movements of the aerodynamic centre at moderate lift coefficient (CL ...
In view of the possibility of trimming some swept-wing aircraft at incidences above the stall, there has been a desire to visualise the whole pattern of vortex sheets and separated flow starting from the stalling wing, and ...
An investigation is made into the manoeuvre of an aeroplane in the entry into and recovery from a true banked horizontal turn executed without sideslip or loss-of height, and the proper continuous co-ordination of aileron, ...
Summary.--The purpose of this paper is : (a) to summarise the basic principles of the matrix force method of structural analysis given in Ref. 1 and to present also some new applications of the general theory ; (b) to ...
