Simplified Two‐Dimensional Aerofoil Theory: A Basic Method of Determining the Profiles of Laminar Flow and High‐Speed Aerofoils
M.J. Brennan, A.C. StevensonTHIS article derives from one of similar title by H. J. Stewart, in which he gave an account of a simple method of dealing with thin aerofoil theory for small angles of incidence…
Analytic Geometry Applied to Aircraft Layout
IN this paper an attempt is made to describe rapid, precise, efficient methods for solving aeroplane geometry problems by analytic geometry.
Stress Diffusion Problems
W.J. GoodeyACCORDING to Saint‐Venant's Principle, the distribution of stress in a body at points remote from the region of application of the applied loads is independent of the mode of…

Ir. L.L. Th. v.i. HulsAT the start of a new era of civil air transport the possibilities offered by the numerous new developments in the operation as well as in the design of aircraft should be…
Torsion in Conical and Cylindrical Shells Intersected by Planes
F.W. DavidSTIFFENED conical and cylindrical shells discontinued by plane intersections not parallel to the plane of the applied torsional moment are quite frequently encountered in aircraft…
The Evolution of Energy in Jet and Rocket Propulsion
P. BielkowiczIT is now possible to determine the temperature in the combustion chamber with greater accuracy than in Part V. However, to simplify the problem it is necessary to make a number…
The Wartime Repair of Bristol Aeroplanes
R.D. CullumTWO items which frequently appeared on the repair lists for the Beaufort and Beaufighter, were (i) the main inter‐spar ribs to which the fuselage is attached, and (ii) the ribs…
Gas Carburizing: A Controlled‐Atmosphere System for the Protection of Surface Finish
SEVERAL methods of carburizing are unisersally employed in modern engineering practice. For instance, in the pack method usually referred to as “box carburizing” the work is…
