An adaptive method for treat number-sequences occurring in lifting surface calculations. (English) Zbl 0541.76079

In lifting surface calculations, assessment of convergence characteristics of number-sequences is a difficult task. A formulation is proposed here to achieve automatically and without iteration a specified accuracy. This saves computation time, and may be termed an ’adaptive method’. A new method of chordwise quadrature, ’TrTr-NONEQ’, is presented as a model. This model indicates that the general formulation is reasonable. In addition, TrTr-NONEQ exhibits many advantages over other current methods such as those of Wagner, Gauss and Cunningham.
