NACA-RM-L53H31 REV A
Abstract: INTRODUCTION
It was shown in reference 1 that near the speed of sound, the zero- 1 lift drag rise for a thin low-aspect-ratio wing-body combination is primarily dependent on the axial distribution of cross-section area ... -
NASA-TN-963
Abstract: The apparent friction coefficient was determined experimentally for the flow of air through smooth pipes at subsonic and supersonic velocities. Values of the Lach number ranged from 0.27 to 3.87 and of Reynolds number from ... -
NASA-LLIS-4580
Abstract: A change management process should be developed at program/project inception and implemented with rigor. An automated system for change management would be best. -
NASA-LLIS-0360
Abstract: Description of Driving Event:
The X-31 is an inherently unstable experimental aircraft. Its dynamic stability is dependent on air data from the Pitot-static system. Unexpected icing of the single-string ...Subject(s) : Aircraft , Flight Equipment , Safety & Mission Assurance , -
NASA-LLIS-0108
Abstract: Description of Driving Event:
The helium injection system introduces a controlled flow of helium into the aft end of the feedline to prevent geysers during propellant loading and holds before launch. ...Subject(s) : Ground Equipment , Ground Operations , Launch Process , Launch Vehicle , -
NASA-LLIS-1016
Abstract: Description of Driving Event:
Collision Avoidance Maneuvers of the ISS Require Close, Real-Time Cooperation Between NASA and US Space Command.Subject(s) : Administration/Organization , Aerospace Safety Advisory Panel , Communication Systems , Computers , Emergency Preparedness , External Relations , Flight Operations , Policy & Planning , Risk Management/Assessment , Safety & Mission Assurance , Spacecraft , -
NASA-LLIS-2616
Abstract: Abstract:
Design decisions made early in a program's development can significantly affect the operational efficiency of the delivered vehicle. There seems to have been a lack of appreciation of this ... -
NASA-LLIS-0728
Abstract: Practice:
Applies a formal Flight Assurance inspection system for mechanical fasteners used in flight hardware and critical applications on ground support equipment (GSE), including all flight hardware/ ... -
NASA-LLIS-1828
Abstract: Abstract:
As part of the Exploration Systems Mission Directorates (HQ Code T) Lessons Learned Project, a lessons learned workshop was held at the Dryden Flight Research Center on July 22,2004. -
NACA-TR-571
Abstract: This report presents the results of pressure-distribution tests of a Clark y wing model with a partial-span split flap made to determine the distribution of air loads over both the wing and the flap. The model was used in ...Subject(s) : DISTRIBUTION , FLAPS , FORCES , LOAD , PRESSURE , RECTANGULAR , SPLIT , TESTS , TUNNEL , WIND , WINGS , -
NACA-TR-1336
Abstract: An investigation has been made to determine the aerodynamic characteristics of the NACA 4-(5)(05)-041 four-blade, single-relation propeller and the NACA 4-(5)(05)-037 six- and eight-blade, dual-rotation propellers in ...Subject(s) : AERODYNAMIC , AIRCRAFT , ANGLES , BLADES , CHARACTERISTICS , COWLINGS , DISTRIBUTION , EFFICIENCY , GEOMETRY , PARTS , PRESSURE , PROPELLER , PROPELLERS , RECOVERY , SPINNERS , STATIC , TESTS , THRUST , TUNNEL , VELOCITY , WIND , -

NASA-LLIS-0470
Abstract: Description of Driving Event:
Various times throughout 1960-1975, functional problems were encountered because a set of connectors were unmated or contacts in the connector were deformed as a result ...Subject(s) : Hardware , Parts Materials & Processes , -
NASA-LLIS-0279
Abstract: Abstract:
The Mariner '69 Scan Platform and the Viking Orbiter Imaging Instrument Filter Wheel were operated with relative position stepping commands. In both cases, anomalies caused actual position ...Subject(s) : Design , Operations , Spacecraft , -
