The report describes work carried out in a supersonic wind tunnel at a Mach number of 1.93 on the interaction produced by wedges of 8°, 12° and 16° angle. The wedges could be raised from the tunnel floor through distances ...
A computer program in Extended Mercury Autocode (EMA) is described for the finite element analysis of plane stress problems in regions of arbitrary geometry, using constant strain triangular elements.
The methods at present available for the estimation of the usual longitudinal and lateral stability derivatives of an airoraft are briefly discussed for each derivative in turn. This is preoeded by an introductory seotion ...
An optical method utilising a standard schlieren system is used to locate the position of the shock wave surrounding a conical body at a free stream Mach number of 4.0. An analysis of the conditions at the shock wave enable ...
