INTRODUCTION This issue of Aeronautical Engineering -- A Continuing Bibliography (NASA SP-7037) lists 466 reports, journal articles and other documents originally announced in July 1989 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 inckde the xiginal accessio:: 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. 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) 437 Category 02 Aerodynamics 439 Includes aerodynamics of bodies, combinations, wings, rotors, and control sur- faces; and internal flow in ducts and turbomachinery.

KARPEL (NASA, Langley Research Center, Hampton, VA; Israel Aircraft Industries. Ltd.. Lod) Journal of Aircraft (ISSN 0021 -8669).-JOURNAL TITLE vol. 25, Aug. 1988, p. 747-751. refs A coupling method for efficient vibration mode analysis of aircraft with multiple external store configurations is presented. A set of low-frequency vibration modes, including rigid-body modes, represent the aircraft. Each external store is represented by its vibration modes with clamped boundary conditions. and by its rigid-body inertial properties. The aircraft modes are obtained from a finite-element model loaded by dummy rigid external stores with fictitious masses. The coupling procedure unloads the dummy stores and loads the actual stores instead. The analytical development is presented, the effects of the fictitious mass magnitudes are discussed, and a numerical example is given for a combat aircraft with external wing stores. Comparison with vibration modes obtained by a direct (full-size) eigensolution shows very accurate coupling results. Once the aircraft and stores data
