Numerical Evaluation of the (Epsilon)-Integral Occurring in the Theodorsen Arbitrary Airfoil Potential Theory

Description: Report presenting the development of a method of evaluating the epsilon-integral occurring in the arbitrary airfoil theory of Theodorsen by retaining higher order terms in the Taylor expansion and by use of Simpson's rule. Formulas are given for routine calculation of the epsilon-integral and for the necessary computational coefficients.

On a function-theory method for obtaining potential-flow patterns of a compressible fluid

Description: Report presenting a method for obtaining exact potential-flow patterns in a compressible fluid. The method is based on a complex-function theory developed for the solutions of the simultaneous first-order partial differential equations in the hodograph variables.
