Static and unsteady pressure measurements on a 50 degree clipped delta wing at M = 0.9

Pressures were measured with Freon as the test medium. Data taken at M = 0.9 is presented for static and oscillatory deflections of the trailing edge control surface and for the wing in pitch. Comparisons of the static measured data are made with results computed using the Bailey-Ballhaus small disturbance code

Steady and unsteady transonic pressure measurements on a clipped delta wing for pitching and control-surface oscillations

Steady and unsteady pressures were measured on a clipped delta wing with a 6-percent circular-arc airfoil section and a leading-edge sweep angle of 50.40 deg. The model was oscillated in pitch and had an oscillating trailing-edge control surface. Measurements were concentrated over a Mach number range from 0.88 to 0.94; less extensive measurements were made at Mach numbers of 0.40, 0.96, and 1.12. The Reynolds number based on mean chord was approximately 10 x 10 to the 6th power. The interaction of wing or control-surface deflection with the formation of shock waves and with a leading-edge vortex generated complex pressure distributions that were sensitive to frequency and to small changes in Mach number at transonic speeds

Evaluation of a wind-tunnel gust response technique including correlations with analytical and flight test results

A wind tunnel technique for obtaining gust frequency response functions for use in predicting the response of flexible aircraft to atmospheric turbulence is evaluated. The tunnel test results for a dynamically scaled cable supported aeroelastic model are compared with analytical and flight data. The wind tunnel technique, which employs oscillating vanes in the tunnel throat section to generate a sinusoidally varying flow field around the model, was evaluated by use of a 1/30 scale model of the B-52E airplane. Correlation between the wind tunnel results, flight test results, and analytical predictions for response in the short period and wing first elastic modes of motion are presented

An Integrative Framework for Strategic Global IT Research: Assessing the Nexus of Key Factors

Despite the need for management to be able to identify the enablers and/or inhibitors of IT success on a global scale, past global IT research has failed to create a sound and comprehensive framework of its own; one which can guide inquiry by researchers in an organized and systematic manner (Palvia 1998). While previous frameworks have been developed (Deans and Ricks 1991; Ein-Dor et al 1993; Nelson and Clark 1994; Cummings and Guynes, 1994; and Gallupe and Tan, 1999), none of them have been accepted universally. The purpose of this paper is to examine the different frameworks previously suggested for global IT research in cumulative manner. By explicating and integrating all dimensions from these past frameworks, we provide a more comprehensive system for identifying new areas of research. More importantly, it provides the basis for reflecting on what should constitute the key dependent variables given a particular mix of independent variables
