Investigation of the Low-Speed Aerodynamic Characteristics of a Variable-Sweep Airplane Model With a Twisted and Cambered Wing

Description: Report presenting an investigation to determine the low-speed characteristics of a variable-sweep airplane model with a twisted and cambered wing. The wing was designed to have a uniform load distribution at a Mach number 1.10 and a lift coefficient of 0.25 and 50 degrees sweep. Results regarding lift characteristics, drag characteristics, lift-drag ratio, pitching-moment characteristics, dynamic pressure and downwash at the tail, effect of flaps, and lateral stability characteristics are provi… more

Metallurgy Division Quarterly Progress Report for Period Ending July 31, 1952

Description: The effect of strain rate on the tensile properties of thorium is being investigated. It was found that the yield strength increases slightly with increasing strain rate, and that tensile strength increases but to a lesser extent. The shear modulus was determined to be 4.26 x 10/sup 6/ psi. A preprocess thorium was made, giving a value of 5.0871 plus or minus 0.0002 A. Studies on the fabrication of thorium by extrusion and drawing were continued, as were studies on the extrusion cladding of tho… more
