THREE-DIMENSIONAL SUPERSONIC FLUTTER MODEL TESTS NEAR MACH NUMBER 1.5. PART 2. EXPERIMENTAL AND THEORETICAL DATA FOR BARE WINGS AND WINGS WITH TIP TANKS

Abstract

Three-dimensional supersonic flutter tests were made on over 75 semi-span models in the MIT blowdown wind tunnel facility. The testing technique involved injecting the model into a stable region of flow and decreasing the Mach number until instability occurred.
