Description

  • Content Description: "A survey has been made of some of the factors to be considered in the design of canard aircraft configurations. The factors include Mach number and angle-of-attack effects as well as the effects of various geometric changes. Among the geometric variables included are the effects of wing plan form, wing height, wing twist, canard plan form, canard area, canard moment arm, forebody length, afterbody length, forebody deflection, vertical-tail plan form, vertical-tail size, vertical-tail location, and various ventral-fin arrangements" (p. 1).
