Extract

Kinetic heating associated with supersonic flight presents new problems to the aircraft structural engineer. Some of these can be resolved by the use of the theorems of thermo-elasticity. This paper outlines the foundations of this subject and derives generalisations of the usual variational theorems, which are so often used in structural analysis.
