Derivation of charts for determining the horizontal tail load variation with any elevator motion

Description: From Summary: "The equations relating the wing and tail loads are derived for a unit elevator displacement. These equations are then converted into a nondimensional form and charts are given by which the wing- and tail-load-increment variation may be determined under dynamic conditions for any type of elevator motion and for various degrees of airplane stability. In order to illustrate the use of the charts, several examples are included in which the wing and tail loads are evaluated for a numb… more

[Plates I-X]

Description: Illustrations accompanying a report investigating the locations of vanadium-bearing phosphatic shale in West-Central Wyoming and Southeastern Idaho. The set includes seven maps (Plates I and V-X) showing the location of rock formations in the area and three charts (Plates II-IV) showing the correlation between the occurrence of vanadium deposits and the thin persistent beds of phosphate rock, oolite, siltstone, dolomite, and limestone with which they are interbedded.

Table IV - Estimated Reserves of Vanadium-Bearing Rock In Areas of Extraction

Description: Table showing the estimated reserves of vanadium-bearing rock in the Paris-Bloomington, Montpelier, Sublette Ridge, Swift Creek, and Strawberry Creek - Greys River Divide extraction areas in west-central Wyoming and southeastern Idaho. Indicated tonnage and inferred tonnage values are given for each area in millions of tons, along with the percentage of vanadium ore rock, maximum and minimum thickness, and average thickness of the rock in the extraction area.
