The calculation of lift slopes, allowing for boundary layer, with applications to the RAE 101 and 104 aerofoils

D. A. Spence; J. A. Beasley (1958)

The need to know two-dimensional low-speed characteristics accurately in designing swept-back wings for transonic aircraft has led to a revival of interest in calculations of the loss of lift below the ideal-flow value ...
The calculation of the warp to produce a given load and the pressures due to a given thickness on thin slender wings in supersonic flow

J. H. B. Smith; J. A. Beasley; Diana Short; F. Walkden (1965)

According to the linearized theory of supersonic flow, both the local slope of the mean surface of a wing producing a specified distribution of lift and the pressure on a wing due to a specified distribution of volume are ...
Estimates of the lift reduction due to boundary layer on two-dimensional aerofoils

J. A. Beasley (1964)

Experimental values of the reduction in lift curve slope due to boundary layer on two-dimensional aerofoils in incompressible flow are compared with estimates derived from the Royal Aeronautical Society Data Sheet and ...
A numerical investigation of the thickening of a shock wave on passing through turbulence

J. A. Beasley (1974)

The characteristic 'N' shaped pressure waves recorded at ground level below the flight path of supersonic aircraft have compressive regions very much less steep than predicted by theory, with a consequent reduction in the ...
