Stress Analysis of Horizontal Tail Surfaces - Model XB-36,

Abstract

A stress analysis is made of the horizontal tail surfaces of the XB-36 bomber. This analysis covers stabilizer and elevator loads, elevator and tab (servo and trim), and stabilizer. Results of the analysis are shown in tables, diagrams, graphs, and computers. The minimum margins of safety are included wherever practical.
