The present report is part of a "Manual" on aircraft loads, that is being prepared by NLR. It contains a computer program, to be used in combination with "MATLAB4 for Windows" (Student Edition) software, to study aircraft loading due to turbulence. It includes a simple aircraft response model with two rigid and three flexible symmetric degrees...

Utilising the NLR Stripyield cycle-by-cycle fatigue crack growth model a basic description of the time dependent effects associated with periods of constant load level has been added to model Fatigue-Creep interactions. An outline of the basic Creep model is given along with flow diagrams of the sub programs added to the Stripyield model. Other...

A description is given of the second problem, a clamped-free truss structure, defined in the GARTEUR Action Group 11. The measured and calculated modal data of the structure are correlated, the locations of the errors are determined and finally the finite element model of the structure is updated. These analyses are performed with the B2000...

This report provides an inventory of computer programs for composite materials which are owned by or known to the members of the NFK-TVK action group. The programs are divided in four groups: general laminate theory; specific laminate problems; general (F.E.) analysis programs; miscellaneous problems. The programs are not discussed in the report...

In this report a description is given of the nonlinear package of B2000. The set-up of the continuation procedure which controls the nonlinear calculations is explained. At some points the existing continuation procedure was modified to enhance its performance. The nonlinear package contains a nonlinear rod element and a nonlinear thick shell...

This report describes the results of a feasibility study on image data compression using spline approximation and image segmentation, with emphasis on earth observation applications. The main subjects dealt with, are: the data compression method, implementation aspects, the test software and test results. It appears that a reduction factor of 5...

In this paper the CAD system DESTIP is described. DESTIP is developed at the NLR for designing compression panels in wing box structures. Application of the system yields optimal panels in the sense that they meet all the requirements imposed by the designer and have minimum weight per unit width. Weight reductions ranging from 0 to 10% have...

The GARTEUR Group of Responsables for Structures and Materials identified the need for an evaluation of fatigue crack propagation models. This resulted in a collaborative GARTEUR activity in which 13 variations of the F-27 transport spectrum were evaluated by 7 institutes and companies using in total 13 crack propagation prediction methods and...

The three dimensional flow field around delta wings with leading-edge vortex flow can be computed with panel methods. However, secondary flow separation may occur on the leeward surface of the wing. The associated free vortex sheet can be modeled in the potential flow calculation method, if the location of the secondary separation is provided by...

A study is made of sound propagation through axially varying ducts with mean flow. Several analytical and numerical approaches are considered, and discussed with respect to their possibilities and limitations. Two new analytical theories, relevant for low and for high frequencies, are worked out in some detail. A fortuitously available *)...

A program system has been developed as a tool for interactive analysis and design of multi-element airfoils in incompressible viscous flow. A global description of the system is given. It involves the application of three computational methods, one for the analysis of viscous flow and one for the analysis of inviscid flow around multi-element...

At NLR a system for the computational design on multi-element airfoil has been developed. This design system solves the inverse aerodynamic problem in an approximate way. A priori specified aerodynamic requirements (surface pressure distribution) and geometric requirements are minimized in a least-squares way, introducing weight factors to...

Best, M.R. (author)
In NLR TR 82075 U, a method has been developed to reconstruct the flight-path of a symmetric flight, by representing this path by a set of splines. In the present report, the same method is being applied to a three-dimensional flight over a rotating earth. Preliminary results are comparable in accuracy and computing time to the Kalman (Square...

Since mid 1982, the Royal Netherlands Meteorological Institute KNMI has to its possession a ground station (KOSMOSS), which receives and processes high resolution imagery, acquired from Tiros-N type weather satellites. To determine the weather positions in the images, the ground station is equipped with the capability to superpose, in real time,...

This report presents results of residual strength calculations, carried out on cracked panel configurations of various designs and provided with bonded stiffeners. The calculations were carried out using the computer program BOND. The results of these calculations are compared with results of residual strength tests, performed on panels of...

The NLR in the Netherlands renders scientific support and technical assistance for the design and operation of aircraft and spacecraft. The approach of NLR can be characterized by integration of experimental and theoretical investigations. For this an integrated computer and terminal network has been developed that links both NLR laboratory...

Examples are discussed of the application of computational methods in aerodynamic design problems involving interference. Amongst these are: subsonic wing-body, sting support, pylon-nacelle and pylon-store interference, high-lift devices, induced drag minimization through constrained optimization in the Treftz-plane and transonic wing-fuselage...

An interactive computer program system has been developed which provides induced-drag analysis, optimization and configuration-design capabilities. The program system employs subsonic far-field (Trefftzplane) analysis, and novel mathematical formulations of the constrained optimization problems which are based on calculus of variations. The...
