Determination of Induced Velocity in Front of an Inclined Propeller by a Magnetic-Analogy Method (open access)

Determination of Induced Velocity in Front of an Inclined Propeller by a Magnetic-Analogy Method

Report presenting the horizontal and vertical components of the induced velocity in front of an inclined propeller in a horizontal stream obtained by a magnetic-analogy method. The problem was formulated in terms of the linear theory of the acceleration potential of an incompressible nonviscous fluid.

Dynamic Loads on Airplane Structures During Landing

Report presenting the application of transient theory to the rational determination of dynamic loads on airplane structures during initial landing impact. Simplified procedures are described by which the distribution of the maximum attainable value of the dynamic stresses in the structure may be obtained.
