Some Effects of Aeroelasticity at Mach Numbers From 0.7 to 1.6 on the Rolling Effectiveness of Thin Flat-Plate Delta Wings Having 45 Degree Swept Leading Edges and Full-Span Constant-Chord Ailerons (open access)

Some Effects of Aeroelasticity at Mach Numbers From 0.7 to 1.6 on the Rolling Effectiveness of Thin Flat-Plate Delta Wings Having 45 Degree Swept Leading Edges and Full-Span Constant-Chord Ailerons

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."

Longitudinal frequency-response characteristics of a 35 degree swept-wing airplane as determined from flight measurements, including a method for the evaluation of transfer functions (open access)

Longitudinal frequency-response characteristics of a 35 degree swept-wing airplane as determined from flight measurements, including a method for the evaluation of transfer functions

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.
