Charts and approximate formulas for the estimation of aeroelastic effects on the loading of swept and unswept wings /Charts are presented for the estimation of aeroelastic effects on spanwise lift distribution, lift-curve slope, aerodynamic career, and damping in roll of swept and unswept wings at subsonic and supersonic speeds....
Non-elliptic lift distribution wings to decrease vertical tailplane size in commercial aircraft... The usecase is a general aviation aircraft for which the wing has been modified using Prandtl’s 1933 approachwhere the span constraint is removed to yield a non-elliptic lift distribution....
A modification to thin-airfoil-section theory, applicable to arbitrary airfoil sections, to account for the effects of thickness on the lift distribution /The manner in which the effects of thickness on the lift distribution are calculated in NACA Report 833, 1945, has been modified to increase the accuracy of the calculation of the load distribution, due to camber and angle of attack,...
Interference of multiplane wings having elliptical lift distributionIn calculating the self-induction of a wing surface, elliptical lift distribution is assumed, while in calculating the mutual induction or interference of two wing surfaces, a uniform distribution of the lift along the wing has hitherto been...
