Some Effects of Density and Mach Number on the Flutter Speed of Two Uniform Wings

Abstract

Present-day trends toward flight at high speeds and high altitudes have led to increasing interest in the flutter speed at low densities and high Mach numbers. An experimental investigation has consequently been made to determine some of the effects of these parameters on flutter speed.
