  • Ames in the NACA
    Atmosphere of Freedom Sixty Years at the NASA Ames Research Center A-26B bomber in the 40 by 80 foot wind tunnel. 4 A Culture of Research Excellence Chapter 1: Ames in the NACA “NACA’s second laboratory:” until the early 1950s, that was how most people in the aircraft industry knew the Ames Aeronautical Laboratory. The NACA built Ames because there was no room left to expand its first laboratory, the Langley Aeronautical Laboratory near Norfolk, Virginia. Most of Ames’ founding staff, and their research projects, trans- ferred from Langley. Before the nascent Ames staff had time to fashion their own research agenda and vision, they were put to work solving operational problems of aircraft in World War II. Thus, only after the war ended—freeing up the time and imagination of Ames people—did Ames as a institution forge its unique scientific culture. With a flurry of work in the postwar years, Ames researchers broke new ground in all flight regimes—the subsonic, transonic, supersonic, and hypersonic. Their tools were an increasingly sophisticated collection of wind tunnels, research aircraft and methods of theoretical calculations. Their prodigious output was expressed in a variety of forms—as data Computers running test data from tabulations, design rules of thumb, specific fixes, blueprints for research facilities, and the 16 foot wind tunnel. theories about the behavior of air. Their leaders were a diverse set of scientists with individual leadership styles, all of whom respected the integrity and quiet dignity of Smith DeFrance, who directed Ames from its founding through 1965. This culture is best described as Ames’ NACA culture, and it endures today.

    Memorial Tributes: Volume 15 Copyright National Academy of Sciences. All rights reserved. Memorial Tributes: Volume 15 PAUL GERMAIN 1920–2009 Elected in 1979 “For contributions in research and education leading to the development of improved supersonic aircraft.” BY ARNOLD MIGUS PAUL GERMAIN, a French scientist of great reputation in the field ofmechanics, died on February 26, 2009, at the age of 88. A leader in the field of supersonic aerodynamics for many years, Paul Germain also wrote textbooks and taught continuum mechanics, greatly influencing engineering education in France and abroad. Paul Germain was born in Saint-Malo, France, on August 28, 1920. His father, who was a soldier during World War I, suffered from the effects of having been gassed, and died when Paul was only 9 years old. Following this premature departure of his father, Paul Germain, the eldest of three children, developed the sense of responsibilities and commitment that characterized him all his life, in an atmosphere of big family solidarity. Trained as a mathematician at the Ecole Normale Supérieure in Paris, he quickly became interested in fluid mechanics. In 1948 he attended the International Congress of Mechanics in London, where, thanks to Sydney Goldstein, he had the opportunity to meet a large number of talented colleagues and was invited to spend some time in the Department of Applied Mathematics of the University of Manchester, headed in 1949 by Goldstein and in 1951 by his long-lasting friend James Lighthill. His thesis on the subject of conical supersonic flows was published by ONERA (The French Aerospace Lab), 123 Copyright National Academy of Sciences.

  • The History of Aeronautics at Stanford University; the Founding and Early Years of the Department of Aeronautics and Astronautics
    From Durand to Hoff: The history of aeronautics at Stanford University; The founding and early years of the Department of Aeronautics and Astronautics On December 19, 1958 Dean of Engineering Joseph Pettit wrote a letter to Provost Fredrick Terman requesting that “the title of Division of Aeronautical Engineering be changed to the Department of Aeronautical Engineering, and that all prerogatives of the departmental status be accorded the Aeronautical Engineering faculty.” Pettit noted that the division had been functioning entirely like a department for the past two years. When it was founded it was the first department at Stanford to be dedicated to interdisciplinary research. By that time high-speed flight and access to space had developed into two of the most important forces shaping modern culture. It was recognized that to effectively impact the development of aircraft and space vehicles a new department was needed where the research would span the disciplines of fluids, structures, control and navigation. In the five decades since, the faculty and students of the department have made major contributions to all of these fields, particularly in the areas of precision navigation, aerodynamic design, flow simulation, propulsion, composite structures, robotic systems and control of complex systems. Beginnings The history of aeronautics at Stanford began long before the founding of the department and is almost as old as the university itself. It started with the appointment of William F. Durand in 1904, only a year after the first flight of Wilbur and Orville Wright. Stanford University opened its doors on October 1, 1891. The first student body consisted of 559 men and women.
