Abstract

The present work shows a mathematical model for unsteady linearized potential flow around thin wings having swept leading and trailing edges and over thick wings with swept and unswept leading edges. Doublet integrals are obtained for the three dimensional case. The wings are supposed to be describing small amplitude harmonic motions of pitch and plunge. Exact solutions for thin and thick wings oscillating on an unsteady potential sonic flow are presented and are compared with other works.
