Abstract
The work on the problems in this report was started by the author at Douglas Aircraft, Santa Monica, in January, 1946. The main bulk of the work was done at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory, California Institute of Technology. Many of the methods and results of this report have been presented at seminars, in particular at Johns Hopkins University and California Institute of Technology. Some of the formulas obtained have been used in References 1, 2, and 3. The main concepts in the theory of conical wings are drawn from the work of A. Busemann (Cf. Ref. 4). Through lectures and discussions the author also received many valuable ideas from W. D. Hayes, R. T. Jones, and in particular H. J. Stewart. Some of the results in Sections I, II, III ,and IV were obtained independently by the author and others, in particular W. D. Hayes, and also by many research workers here and abroad working with widely different methods. Sections V and VI are believed to be essentially new, as regards both the basic solutions and the proposed application of these solutions. Miss Martha E. Graham of the Douglas Aerodynamics Department carried out many special computations and supplied valuable criticism. At the Jet Propulsion Laboratory, George Morikawa worked on the manuscript and H. J. Stewart read it critically.
