摘要

A literature survey, including 314 references, is presented for the fields of automobile and airplane wheel shimmy. The coverage is believed to be relatively complete insofar as the available, published world-wide literature is concerned. In addition to the bibliographic listings, a short review and appraisal of the contents of each reference is given. The report contains indices according to subject, author and nationality of the contributions; the periodical coverage of the survey is also given in detail. A general survey of the problems of automobile and airplane wheel shimmy is included, which highlights the principal trends and contributions to the subject over the years. Finally, on the basis of the survey indications, recommendations are advanced for further research and development in the field. (Author)
