Summary.--The object of this report is two-fold. On the mathematical side it seeks to illustrate the use of oblique co-ordinates in applications to Elasticity and Structure Theory. On the practical side it seeks to provide ...
The report comprises two contrasting and complementary approaches to the evaluation of the second-order aerodynamic side force and yawing moment on lifting wings when leading-edge and side-edge forces play an important ...
A finite-deflection analysis is given of the buckling of long, slightly curved panels in compression parallel to the generators, with sides either clamped or simply-supported, and with various combinations of boundary ...
Some factors affecting the design of a row of windows in a pressurized cylindrical fuselage are discussed. The concept of the neutral hole is adopted, but account is taken of the change in the basic 2:1 stress field ...
It has been shown in R. & M. 2611 how lift may be obtained on aerofoils independently of the incidence. In this paper mathematical processes are set out of designing such aerofoils to have specified velocity distributions ...
This paper has been prepared for publication from several papers written some years ago. It is essentially a new presentation of the more important features of the earlier papers. The paper is about the transonic area rule, ...

The driver-reservoir technique, first proposed by Henshall et al, is of interest to shock tunnel users because of its promise of an increase in running time. The most usual form of termination of running time in the shock ...
A simple analytical technique is presented for obtaining lower bounds to the effective moduli of unidirectional fibre-reinforced composites with any repetitive array of fibres. The analysis depends upon a direct method ...
The interference potentials for lift, solid blockage and wake blockage have previously been presented in the form of integral expressions. In this Report the expression for wake blockage, which has been in error, is ...
This Report considers theoretically and experimentally some of the problems associated with the flexure of two unequal cylindrical shells Joined by a conical frustum. Particular attention is given to the determination of ...
When thin built-up wings experience pure flexure, the surfaces deflect towards the neutral axis of the cross-section due to the 'Brazier' effect. The resulting cross-sectional deformation of symmetrical wings with flat ...
