INTRODUCTION This issue of Aeronautical Engineering -- A Continuing Bibliography (NASA SP-7037) lists 539 reports, journal articles and other documents originally announced iii December 1988 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, construction, evaluation, testing, operation, and performance of aircraft (including aircraft engines) and associated 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 item:; 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. Information on the availability of cited publications including addresses of organizations and NTlS price schedules is located at the back of this bibliography. iii TABLE OF CONTENTS Page Category 01 Aeronautics (General) 783 Category 02 Aerodynamics 785 Includes aerodynamics of bodies, combinations, wings, rotors, and control sur- faces; and internal flow in ducts and turbomachinery.

In Japanese, with abstract in English. refs Reduced-order controllers for active flutter suppreseion of a two-dimensional airfoil are studied using two design approaches. One is based on the generalized Hessenberg representaticin (GHR) in the time domain, and the other, called the Nyquist frequency approximation (NFA). is a method in the frequency domain. In the NFA method, the reduced-order controllers are designed so that the stability margin of the Nyquist plot may be increasd over a specific frequency range. To illustrate and to make a coinparison between the two methods, numerical simulations are carried out using a thirteenth-order controlled plant. It is to be noted that the GHR method can yield quasi-optimal controllers in the !sense of minimizing quadratic performance indices. The designed controllers, however, do not have enough stability margin, and the order reduction resulting from full state controllers may not be satisfactory. On the other hand. reduced-order controllws in. the NFA method
