Method and Cost of Mining the Thick Freeport Coal in a Second Western Pennsylvania Mine (open access)

Method and Cost of Mining the Thick Freeport Coal in a Second Western Pennsylvania Mine

From introduction: The purpose of this paper is to present a detailed description of the methods employed and the equipment used, with the results obtained in the operation of this mine in the thick Freeport bed on the northern end of the field, near the Alleghegny-Butler county line in western Pennsylvania. It may be classed as a captive mine, as the largest portion of the product is consumed at the by-product plants of the parent company

Wind Tunnel Pressure Distribution Tests on a Series of Biplane Wing Models Part I: Effects of Changes in Stagger and Gap (open access)

Wind Tunnel Pressure Distribution Tests on a Series of Biplane Wing Models Part I: Effects of Changes in Stagger and Gap

This report is on the changes in forces on each wing of a biplane cellule when either the stagger or the gap is varied. Since each test was carried up to a 90 degree angle of attack, the results may be used in the study of stalled flight and of spinning as well as in the structural design of biplane wings.

Torsional Rigidity of Cantilever Wings With Constant Spar and Rib Sections (open access)

Torsional Rigidity of Cantilever Wings With Constant Spar and Rib Sections

"The present paper treats less of the effect of the union (of spars and ribs, namely, the reduction of the bending moment at the fixed ends of the spars) than of its influence on the torsional rigidity of the wing. The calculations are carried out for a two-spar wing of constant cross section, in which the ribs are replaced by a continuous member of constant rigidity" (p. 1).

Wings With Nozzle-Shaped Slots (open access)

Wings With Nozzle-Shaped Slots

Even before the publication of the results of the Gottingen experiments on the removal of the boundary layer by suction, experiments with nozzle-slotted wings were begun. A report of those experiments will be given here. Taken collectively, the experiments show that, as regards increasing the lift values, the effect of the air flowing from the nozzle-shaped slots is similar to the effect produced in the case of ordinary slotted wings. The high lift values are attained, however, at the smaller angles of attack employed in ordinary flight.

The Analysis of Aircraft Structures as Space Frameworks: Method Based on the Forces in the Longitudinal Members (open access)

The Analysis of Aircraft Structures as Space Frameworks: Method Based on the Forces in the Longitudinal Members

The following examples do not take up the discussion of viewpoints to be heeded in determining the design of a framework for given external conditions. Rather they are methods for determining the forces in airplane fuselages and wings, though similar considerations are applied to certain simple cases of a different kind. The object of this treatise is to summarize and amplify these considerations from definite viewpoints.
