Aeroplane design studies conventional and V.T.O.L. freighter aircraft (Academic Years 1959 and 1961)

Howe, D. (College of Aeronautics, 1963-11)

During the second year of their course in the Department of Aircraft Design, students have the option of working as a member of a team engaged in a design study. The subjects for the studies are chosen to represent the ...
Aeroplane design studies mach 2.2 and mach 3.0 supersonic airliners (academic years 1960 and 1962)

Howe, D. (College of Aeronautics, 1965-02)

This report is divided into three parts. The first two of these describe the A-60, Mach 2.2 airliner and the A-62, Mach 3.0 airliner design studies respectively. Apart from the different cruise speeds these two aircraft ...
Aeroplane design studies: bpropeller turbine and pure jet powered general purpose transport aircraft (academic years 1963 and 1965)

Howe, D. (College of Aeronautics, 1967-05)

The recent interest in the air bus conception of air travel is reflected in the aircraft chosen for study by the students in the Department of Aircraft Design during the 1963 and 1965 academic years. The first study was ...
Aircraft design studies: variable sweepback naval aircraft

Howe, D. (College of Aeronautics, 1967)

A preliminary survey of the possible applications of variable sweepback indicated that a substantial improvement in performance can be expected when the concept is applied to a naval strike aircraft. In order to assess ...
The double and single shear strengths of avdel light alloy blind rivets in DTD 546 b aluminium alloy sheet

Lempriere, B. M. (College of Aeronautics, 1957-04)

Tests have been performed to compare the double- and single-shear strengths of joints in DTD 546b light alloy sheets using Avdel blind rivets. The tests were an extension of work done on solid rivets, and followed ...
Double shear strength of B.S.L.69 snap head rivets in L.72 and L.73 aluminium alloy sheet

Howe, D. (College of Aeronautics, 1956-07)

A limited series of tests has been carried out on single and double shear riveted joints using 1469 (D.T.D.327) snap head rivets and L.72 (D.T.D.610) and L.73 (D.T.D. 546) sheets. The specimens were similar to those ...
Four papers contributed by members of the staff and published on the occasion of the 10th anniversary of its foundation

College of Aeronautics, (Cranfield) (College of Aeronautics, 1956-11)

THE kinetic heating associated with supersonic flight produces temperature gradients within the aircraft structure. These in their turn are responsible for so-called 'thermal stresses' in the components. The calculation ...
The interference of a rearward facing jet on the flow over three representative afterbody shapes in a uniform subsonic flow

Craven, A. H. (College of Aeronautics, 1957-04)

This report contains the results of an experimental investigation into the interference of a ,rearward facing undeflected jet on the flow over three afterbody shapes at subsonic speeds. The tests were performed at a ...
A note on some equipment used for boundary layer measurements in flight. Part 1, the design and construction of a large multitube manometer for use in flight. Part 2, two fixed head type combs for boundary layer investigations

Burrows, F. M. (College of Aeronautics, 1956-07)

Some notes are presented relating to the design and construction of a large multitube manometer and to two 'fixed head' type boundary layer combs to be used for the measurement in flight of the boundary layer ...
A note on the machinability of ultra high tensile steel

Purcell, J. (College of Aeronautics, 1957-01)

The requirements of this investigation were to determine optimum tool geometry and cutting conditions for turning Ultra High Strength Alloy Steel (fully heat treated to 120 tons per sq.ins.). The material will be used ...
Production, employment and productivity in the United Kingdom, 1948-55

Harris, J. T. (College of Aeronautics, 1956-10)

Production movements are analysed statistically according to the contribution of changes in, productivity within industries and activities, employment, and the re-distribution of employment between industries and ...
