Gates and Lyon have proposed to treat theoretically
the stability and control of deformable aircraft by a method
in which the distortion co-ordinates are ignored and the
influence of distortion is allowed for by suitable modifications
of the derivatives and other coefficients. in the 'present
paper an exact method for eliminating the distortion
co-ordinates is given and the conditions in which the true
eliminant conforms with the simplification of Gates and Lyon
are examined. In general the simplification is not justified mathematically, but in certain circumstances it provides an
acceptable approximation. it will not be practically valid
unless the structural distortions occur so relatively slowly
that the associated inertia forces are negligible, i.e. the
distortions must be quasi-static. |
