Abstract

BEFORE a detailed consideration of internal stresses may be made, it is necessary to define external loadings which are possibly critical. This involves the consideration of manoeuvres throughout the altitude range of the aeroplane, to a severity fixed by aerodynamic or specification values of speed and normal acceleration.
