Calculation of Wing Spars of Variable Cross-Section and Linear Load (open access)

Calculation of Wing Spars of Variable Cross-Section and Linear Load

"The calculation of wing spars of constant cross-section and load has been thoroughly treated by a large number of authors. Such is not the case,however, regarding the calculation of wing spars whose section and linear load diminish toward the ends, as in wings of trapezoidal contour and decreasing section" (p. 1).

Preliminary investigation of the effect of a rotating cylinder in a wing (open access)

Preliminary investigation of the effect of a rotating cylinder in a wing

Into the leading edge of a wing with arbitrary cross-section, there is introduced a cylinder, which can be rotated by an electric motor by means of a cord. Observations were made in the wind tunnel on how the lift at different wind velocities was affected by rotating this cylinder.
