Flutter tests of B-34 fin-rudder-tab system

Description: From Summary: "Tests on the B-34 fin-rudder-tab assembly were performed in the NACA 8-foot high-speed tunnel. Two cases of tab flutter were studied. It was shown conclusively that the frequency of the original or heavy tab was too low and caused coupling with one of the lower bending frequencies. A general conclusion was made that the tab frequency should be considerably higher than the lower modes of the fin-rudder assembly because there is generally a weaker coupling between the tab and the h… more
