Open publisher page 56 citations

Abstract

Numerical methods for the design and analysis of arbitrary-planform wings at supersonic speeds are reviewed. Certain deficiencies are revealed, particularly in application to wings with slightly subsonic leading edges. Recently devised numerical techniques which overcome the major part of these deficiencies are presented. The original development as well as the more recent revisions are subjected to a thorough review.
