Extract

In the previous linearised theories of steady supersonic flow past a slender oscillating aerofoil, the shock line at the nose has been assumed to be a straight, stationary one, so that no vorticity is produced on passing through it. In the present treatment, the possibility that the shock may be both curved and moving is taken into account, but the result is exactly the same as that obtained by the previous treatments (e.g. Temple and Jahn).
