INTRODUCTION This issue of Aeronautical Engineering -- A Continuing Bibliography (NASA SP-7037) lists 586 reports, journal articles and other documents originally announced in October 1987 in Scientific and Technical Aerospace Reports (STAR) or in International Aerospace Abstracts (IAA). The coverage includes documents on the engineering and theoretical aspects of design, construc- tion, evaluation, testing, operation, and performance of aircraft (including aircraft engines) and as- sociated components, equipment, and systems. It also includes research and development in aerodynamics, aeronautics, and ground support equipment for aeronautical vehicles. Each entry in the bibliography consists of a standard bibliographic citation accompanied in most cases by an abstract. The listing of the entries is arranged by the first nine STAR specific categories and the remaining STAR major categories. This arrangement offers the user the most advantageous breakdown for individual objectives. The citations include the original accession numbers from the respective announcement journals.The IAA items will precede the STAR items within each category Seven indexes -- subject, personal author, corporate source, foreign technology, contract number, report number, and accession number -- are included. An annual cummulative index will be published.

Model vanables made testing of the model possible with the canard in hiqh and low positions, with increased winglet area, with outboard winy leading-edge droop, with fuselage-mounted vertical fin and rudder, with enlarged rudders, with dual deflecting rudders, and with ailerons mounted closer to the wing tips. The basic model exhibited generally good longitudinal and lateral stability and control characteristics. The removal of an outboard leading-edge droop degraded roll damping and produced lightly damped roll (wing rock) oscillations. In general, the model exhibited very stable dihedral effect but weak directional stability. Rudder and aileron control power were sufficiently adequate for control of most flight conditions, but appeared to be relatively weak for maneuvering compared with those of more conventionally configure d models.

    Study and Numerical Simulation of Unconventional Engine Technology

    STUDY AND NUMERICAL SIMULATION OF UNCONVENTIONAL ENGINE TECHNOLOGY by ANJALI SHEKHAR B.E Aeronautical Engineering VTU, Karnataka, 2013 A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science, Aerospace Engineering, College of Engineering and Applied Science, University of Cincinnati, Ohio 2018 Thesis Committee: Chair: Ephraim Gutmark, Ph.D. Member: Shaaban Abdallah, Ph.D. Member: Mark Turner, Sc.D. An Abstract of Study and Numerical Simulation of Unconventional Engine Technology by Anjali Shekhar Submitted to the Graduate Faculty as partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Master of Science Degree in Aerospace Engineering University of Cincinnati December 2018 The aim of this thesis is to understand the working of two unconventional aircraft propul- sion systems and to setup a two-dimensional transient simulation to analyze its operational mechanism. The air traffic has nearly increased by about 40% in past three decades and calls for alternative propulsion techniques to replace or support the current traditional propulsion methodology. In the light of current demand, the thesis draws motivation from renewed inter- est in two non-conventional propulsion techniques designed in the past and had not been given due importance due to various flaws/drawbacks associated. The thesis emphasizes on the work- ing of Von Ohains thermal compression engine and pulsejet combustors. Computational Fluid Dynamics is used in current study as it offers very high flexibility and can be modified easily to incorporate the required changes. Thermal Compression engine is a design suggested by Von Ohain in 1948. The engine works on the principle of pressure rise caused inside the engine which completely depends on the temperature of working fluid and independent of rotations per minute.

The display device consisted of two vertical rows of light- emitting diodes (LED's) located toward the center of the cockpit instrument panel, with one row of lights visible to the left of the control stick and the other row visible to the right of the control stick. The light strings provided a logical extension of the head-up display (HUD) velocity vector symbol at flight-path angles which exceeded the HUD field-of-view. Four test subjects flew a modified F/A-18 model with this display in an air-to-air engagement task against an equally capable opponent. Their responses to a questionnaire indicated that the conformal velocity vector information could not be used during the scenarios investigated due to the inability to visually track a target and view the lights simultaneously. INTRODUCTION During the course of fighter aircraft display format research, many pilots have expressed a desire to have the direction in which the aircraft is traveling (aircraft's velocity vector) presented in the cockpit.

Much of the published lean literature is written at a high level of abstraction and contains very basic examples. When lean tools are applied blindly to complex, highly constrained systems, lean implementation becomes challenging and often ineffective.
