Structural Problems Surveyed
THE important series under the title ‘Energy Theorems and Structural Analysis’ which we published during the winter of 1954–5 will have made our readers familiar with the work of…
Panels under Thermal Stress: The Behaviour of a Panel Restrained against Expansion in one Direction and Loaded in the other Direction when Subjected to Kinetic Heating
E.W. ParkesThis paper discusses the problem of a panel attached along two of its edges to heavy members which respond only slowly to external temperature change and thereby prevent its free…
Turbine Disks for Jet Propulsion Units: An Account of Work of the Disk Panel of the Ministry of Supply, Gas Turbine Collaboration Committee, during the years 1941–1949
A.E. JohnsonTURBINE disks of jet propulsion units operate under conditions of considerable complexity for which steam turbine practice and experience afford little assistance in matters of…
Aeroelastic Problems of Low Aspect Ratio Wings: Part V. Application of the Structural and Aeroelastic Matrices to the Solution of Steady State Aeroelastic Problems
J.E.F. Farbridge, F.A. Woodward, G.E.A. ThomannThis final paper of the series deals with the application of the structural and aerodynamic matrices to determine the final steady state loading on the wing, with a view to the…
End Grain Balsa as a Sandwich Core Material: A Study of the Properties of Wood Cored Panels used in the Construction of Aircraft
J.P. WhiteThe use in aircraft construction of sandwich panels with balsa wood cores gives a saving in weight with very high tensile and compressive strength, which is maintained over a wide…
S.A.E. Annual Meeting at Detroit: Summaries of Papers Presented to the Meeting Held on January 9–13, 1956
In the manufacture of Republic aircraft the use of forged parts has increased from one 12 × 12 in. component in the P47 Thunderbolt to a total of 436 forged units in recent…
The Library Shelf
For a solution of a problem in practical engineering to be of any value it must be capable of concrete numerical computation at the design stage; and, moreover, it must be such…

Tools for the Workshop
Very large milling cutter gangs for the machining of aircraft components from high tensile steel are being supplied to Vickers‐Armstrongs by the English Steel Tool Corporation…
New Materials
Production of titanium is rapidly increasing, and in the United States it is estimated that the production of sponge titanium in 1955, was about 8,000 tons, a 50 per cent increase…
Month in the Patent Office
Propulsive jets from transversely disposed rows of engines 1 are discharged through spanwise‐extending openings 5 in the undersurfaces of the wings, the jets normally discharging…
