A parametric study of planform and aeroelastic effects on aerodynamic center, alpha- and q- stability derivatures. Appendix B: Method for computing the strucutral influence coefficient matrix of nonplanar wing body tail configurations
The method used in computing the structural influence coefficient matrix of the computer program of Reference 1 (appendix A of the Summary Report) is reported. This matrix is computed for complete wing-body-tail configurations by assuming that all major airplane components can be structurally represented by a slender beam called the elastic axis. A structural influence coefficient is defined as the rotation about the Y-stability axis at panel j induced by a unit load on panel k. A description of how a structural breakdown is performed in detail is included.

A parametric study of planform and aeroelastic effects on aerodynamic center, alpha- and q-stability derivatives. Appendix E: Procedures used to determine the structural representation for idealized low aspect ratio two spar fighter wings
An explanation is presented of the method used to locate the elastic axis and the method to determine the EI and GJ distributions along the elastic axes of wings with a 2-spar (front and rear) construction or a single torque-box construction.
