摘要

The students performed the majority of the actual document reviews after being instructed as to the type of information desired. The faculty also provided guidance when pertinence of a particular report was questioned or the treatment was too advanced. Beginning in late fall, the faculty members carried out an analysis of the reviews in their areas of cognizance to (1) identify those of most probably interest in the development of a design manual, (2) define the state of the art in each area, and (3) identify those areas particularly well-treated or requiring additional research. The body of this report contains the results of the analysis relating to structural design. The individual reviews are reproduced in the appendix. Volume II treats aero¬dynamics and aerodynamic loads while Volume III is concerned with propulsion systems, propellers, performance calculation, stability and control, and flight safety.
