F-89 Hydraulic Actuator Combinatorial Geometric Representation.

Abstract

This report summarizes development of a computerized geometric representation of an F-89 aileron actuator for the MAGIC computer program. The MAGIC program uses the techniques of combinatorial geometry to describe components and was developed for vulnerability analysis uses. Procedures used to idealize the actuator, and develop and debug the MAGIC descriptions, are described and problems encountered are discussed. Results of the MAGIC description and typical cross section plots are presented.
