Blast Gust Loading on a 35 Degree Swept-Back Wing.
Abstract
The Ballistic Research Lab (BRL) performed shock loading tests on a generic wing in the 2.44 meter shock tube. This model was previously tested on the rocked sled facility at Holloman AFB NM, and is documented in report number DNA 5211F. The purpose of the BRL test was to determine if the data gathered at Holloman AFB on gust loading of the wing could be duplicated in the shock tube. On Feb 20 and 25, 1985, tests were conducted in the BRL shock tube to obtain pressure data on a 35 degree sweptback generic wing model. These data are subsequently compared with equivalent data taken on the same model at the Holloman sled track.
