The unsteady lift of a wing of finite aspect ratio (open access)

The unsteady lift of a wing of finite aspect ratio

"Unsteady-lift functions for wings of finite aspect ratio have been calculated by correcting the aerodynamic inertia and the angle of attack of the infinite wing. The calculations are based on the operational method. The starting lift of the finite wing is found to be only slightly less than that of the infinite wing; whereas the final lift may be considerably less" (p. 1).
