An immediate consequence of this method of constructing the velocity field is that it can be readily shown that, unlike for infinite-span straight wings, the streamlines do not follow the free-stream direction in the x–z plane. This is an important characteristic of swept wings. The streamlin...
The current study investigates the natural laminar-to-turbulent transition in the boundary layers of straight (STR) and swept (SWE) wings. The experiments are conducted in a subsonic low-speed wind tunnel using two wings configurations employing infrared thermography and pressure measurements. More ...
evaluated stability parameters for wings whose edges are straight. The aerodynamic forces and moments acting on an aircraft and the curved leading edges for supersonic flows are described by the variables known as stability derivatives [16] and [17]. The study by Jadhav et al. [18] explored ...
For example, to reduce the flow separation on blade surfaces, an owl wing-section airfoil and the non-smooth leading-edge shape of owl wings were studied in [16], finding that the power coefficient of the wind turbine can be increased by 17.7% by optimizing the wavelength and amplitude of...
(17:00) Mitchell Parker had a fourth straight quality start to begin his 2025. The lefty only allowed one run in six innings of work on Wednesday. Parker's ERA is an extremely impressive 1.85 and has been the team's best pitcher so far. (20:10) Davey Martinez confirmed that DJ Herz...
slat noiseairframe noisenoise reductionAn experimental study of the airframe noise for small-scale wing models with high-lift devices (slat and flap) is performed. It is shown that installation of chevrons on the lower edge of a slat leads to noise reduction on both straight and swept wings....

In this report are collected together the calculated aerodynamic loadings due to incidence of a number of straight and swept-back wings. The calculations follow in the main the routine described previously in another report1, but include additions concerned with induced camber and induced drag. An ...
