Abstract

The entry of a wing into the zone of a sharp-edged gust is considered in the linear formulation. The case is studied when the wing velocity is supersonic and its edges satisfy the supersonic flow condition. The gust intensity is considered to be variable, and its edge may move into the undisturbed medium. Equations in finite form are obtained for the forces and moments for a rectangular wing of infinite span, and also for triangular wings with positive and negative sweep, for the case when the gust intensity varies linearly. Sudden envelopment of the wing and penetration of the wing into a gust whose edge is fixed relative to the undisturbed medium are considered.
