Memorandum listing NACA reports related to a variety of research topics, including instruments, research equipment, and research techniques.

From Summary: "The aeroelastic effects on wing-aileron rolling effectiveness and drag of thin flat-plate delta wings with 45 degree swept leading edge and plain constant-chord ailerons have been investigated. This investigation has been carried out over a Mach number range of 0.7 to 1.6 by means of rocket-propelled test vehicles in free flight. The results show a near-linear decrease in lateral control effectiveness with a decrease in the wing torsional stiffness. An aileron-effectiveness reversal was experienced with the more flexible delta-wing models."

Report presenting longitudinal frequency-response characteristics of a 35 degree swept-wing airplane computed from flight measurements. Also presented are pitching-velocity frequency responses to displacements of the adjustable stabilizer. Results regarding frequency-response curves, transfer functions, elevator effectiveness, altitude variations, and potential errors in data are provided.

This is the monthly report for the Hanford Laboratories Operation. Metallurgy, reactor fuels, physics and instrumentation, reactor technology, chemistry, separation processes, biology, financial activities, employee relations, laboratories auxiliaries, radiation protection, operation research, inventions, visits, and personnel status are discussed. This report is for September 1956.

This document presents a summary of work and progress at the Hanford Engineer Works for May 1953. The report is divided into sections by department. A plant wide general summary is included at the beginning of the report, after which the departmental summaries begin. The Manufacturing Department reports plant statistics, and summaries for the Metal Preparation, Reactor and Separation sections. The Engineering Department`s section summaries work for the Technical, Design, and Project Sections. Costs for the various departments are presented in the Financial Department`s summary. The Medical, Radiological Sciences, Utilities and General Services, Employee and Public Relations, and Community Real Estate and Services departments have sections presenting their monthly statistics, work, progress, and summaries.
