A Scheme of Notation and Nomenclature for Aircraft Dynamics and Associated Aerodynamics Part 2 — Basic Notation and Nomenclature

摘要

The proposals are intended to supersede the attempts made, notably by Bryant and Gates, to revise and extend the existing standard reference in this field, namely R. & M. 1801.nPart 1 contains an extensive introduction describing the main objectives and summarising a consider¬able amount of historical background. It also lists the symbols, references, and most of the tables for the whole report, and provides an index. All illustrations are appended to Part 1, and copies included in the remaining parts where required.nParts 2, 3, and 4 deal with basic notation and nomenclature, aircraft dynamics, and associated aero¬dynamic data respectively, and they can be read almost independently of Part 1. A great deal of reference information is included in the main text and in the twelve appendices which comprise Part 5.nParts 2 to 5 do not contain separate lists of symbols and references or an index.
