Jet Propulsion with Special Reference to Thrust Augmenters
An investigation of the possibility of using thrust augmented jets as prime movers was carried out. The augmentation was to be effected by allowing the jet to mix with the surrounding air in the presence of bodies which deflect the air set in motion by the jet. Six augmentation schemes were tested experimentally with compressed air at room temperature at jet speeds up to 1240 feet per second.

Rolling, yawing, and hinge moments produced by rectangular ailerons
Ailerons described in references 1, 2, and 3, are summarized in the form of empirical equations which relate the aileron dimensions and displacements to the rolling, yawing, and hinge moments for pitch angles of 0 and 12 degrees, corresponding to angles of attack of the wings of 4 and 16 degrees, respectively.

Wind Tunnel Research Concerning Lateral Control Devices, Particularly at High Angles of Attack 7: Handley Page Tip and Full-Span Slots With Ailerons and Spoilers
Tests were made with ordinary ailerons and different sizes of spoilers on rectangular Clark Y wing models with Handley Page tip and full span slots. The tests showed the effect of the control devices on the general performance of the wings as well as on the lateral control and lateral stability characteristics.

Working charts for the stress analysis of elliptic rings
This report presents charts which reduce the stress analysis of circular and elliptic rings of uniform cross section subjected to balanced systems of concentrated loads from a statically indeterminate problem to a statically determinate one. To demonstrate the use of the charts in the stress analysis of elliptic rings, an illustrative problem is included.
