Download or read book Minimal Drag for Wings with Prescribed Lift, Roll Moment and Yaw Moment written by Karl L. E. Nickel and published by . This book was released on 1983 with total page 43 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Let L, R, Y be arbitrary real constants. A wing with fixed span which produces lift L, roll moment R, yaw moment Y and which has minimal induced drag D is wanted. This problem arises in airplane engineering. It is solved by means of Prandtl's lifting line theory combined with computation. (Author).
