Mechanical Properties of Selected Alloys at Elevated Temperatures [Pt. 1]

Description: Report describing a research study to provide material property data of the type and quality necessary for efficient design of hot aircraft and missile structural components. Six materials in plate and bar form were subjected to tension, compression, bearing, and shear stresses at various temperatures. Preliminary considerations of the study, testing apparatus, calibration and accuracy of the equipment, testing procedures and results are discussed.

Survey of Human Dynamics Data and a Sample Application

Description: Report describing an approach to the application of the results of research on the human transfer function. A form of a quasi-linear human transfer function has been laid out on the basis of previous experimental results. It has been assumed that human reaction time and neuromuscular lag are constant and that the pilot will adopt a gain and compensation through training which will minimize the mean square tracking error of the system of which he is part. Calculations were made of the mean squar… more
