Comparison of Flight Load Measurements Obtained from Calibrated Strain Gages and Pressure Transducers.

Abstract

Net shear, bending moment, and torsion at one wing station derived from concurrent strain gage and pressure transducer measurements are compared. Comparisons are made for results from normal and abrupt symmetrical pullup/pushdown, and rolling pullout maneuvers at subsonic and supersonic speeds and four wing sweeps. With few exceptions good to very good correlation is shown. (Author)
