The Boundary Layer as a Means of Controlling the Flow of Liquids and Gases (open access)

The Boundary Layer as a Means of Controlling the Flow of Liquids and Gases

According to one of the main propositions of the boundary layer theory the scarcely noticeable boundary layer may, under certain conditions, have a decisive influence on the form of the external flow by causing it to separate from the wing surface. These phenomena are known to be caused by a kind of stagnation of the boundary layer at the point of separation. The present report deals with similar phenomena. It is important to note that usually the cause (external interference) directly affects only the layer close to the wall, while its indirect effect extends to a large portion of the external flow.

Riveting in Metal Airplane Construction Part 1 : Riveting Methods and Equipment in German Metal Airplane Construction (open access)

Riveting in Metal Airplane Construction Part 1 : Riveting Methods and Equipment in German Metal Airplane Construction

"Although all constructors in Germany use duralumin quite frequently, and prefer cold riveting exclusively for permanent (nondetachable) connections of individual structural components, their methods and equipment are very diversified. The differences are due to a great extent to the diversity of structural types and to the special shapes of the individual subassemblies. The results is that different manufacturers have developed totally different riveting methods, as well as entirely different working methods" (p. 1).
