U.S. Supersonic Commercial Aircraft
Author: National Research Council
Publisher: National Academies Press
ISBN: 9780309058780
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 168
Book Description
The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) is currently developing advanced technologies to form the foundation for the next breakthrough in civil aviation: an economically viable, environmentally acceptable supersonic transport. NASA's High Speed Research Program works in conjunction with industry to identify and address critical technological challenges to initiating commercial development of a practical supersonic transport. The key technical areas investigated are engine emissions, fuel efficiency, service life, and weight; community noise; aircraft range and payload; and weight and service life of airframe structures. Areas of particular interest include the ability of technologies under development to meet program goals related to noise, emissions, service life, weight, range, and payload. This book examines aircraft design requirements, assesses the program's planning and progress, and recommends changes that will help the program achieve its overall objectives.

ISBN: 9781563471162
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 544
Book Description
Drawn from early volumes of Aerospace America and its antecedents, this book rescues the insights, concerns, and dreams of dozens of structural engineers for the next generation of aerospace scientists and engineers. Written by eminent individuals in structures, this book provides accessible source material for university-level design courses in aerospace engineering. The first paper in Structures Technology deals with new structures for future aerospace systems and provides a contrast between our current thinking and past technology plans. Succeeding papers are historical reports covering materials and structures, general structures technology, aircraft structures, space structures, and structural dynamics technology. You will also find sections covering structural configurations, thermal protection systems, subsonic aircraft, supersonic and hypersonic vehicles and structures for space systems.

NASA Research on Materials Applicable to Supersonic Transports
Author: Herbert F. Hardrath

ISBN:

Languages : en
Pages : 24
Book Description
National Aeronautics and Space Administration has conducted tests to determine the mechanical properties of materials suitable for use in a supersonics transport over the temperature range of interest and after prolonged exposure to temperature. On the basis of studies on fatigue behavior, rate of fatigue crack propagation, residual static strength, and resistance to deterioration of properties due to prolonged exposure to temperature, no serious materials problems are anticipated. However, stress corrosion is found to be a potentially serious problem in titanium alloys in a hot salt environment and in stainless steels in an ambient environment. The-Ti-8A1-lMo-lV alloy is found to be generally superior to other contending materials in all respects studied except for salt stress corrosion in which respect it was poorer than all others. Further research is recommended on stress corrosion; on the combined effects of fatigue, thermal exposure, and creep; and on the development of structural configurations and fabrication procedures suitable for the supersonic transport.

Book Description
High-speed flight is a major technological challenge for both commercial and business aviation. As a first step in revitalizing efforts by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to achieve the technology objective of high-speed air travel, NASA requested the National Research Council (NRC) to conduct a study that would identify approaches for achieving breakthroughs in research and technology for commercial supersonic aircraft. Commercial Supersonic Technology documents the results of that effort. This report describes technical areas where ongoing work should be continued and new focused research initiated to enable operational deployment of an environmentally acceptable, economically viable commercial aircraft capable of sustained supersonic flight, including flight over land, at speeds up to approximately Mach 2 in the next 25 years or less.
