Damping-in-Roll Characteristics of a 42.7 Degree Sweptback Wing as Determined From a Wind-Tunnel Investigation of a Twisted Semispan Wing

Description: Report presenting an investigation to determine the damping-in-roll characteristics of a 42.7 degree sweptback wing using a linearly twisted wing to represent a rolling wing. Results regarding the effect of the airfoil contour, damping-in-roll coefficient, wing-tip helix angle, and theoretical results are provided.
