Some Aspects of S.S.T. Operations in Non-optimum Conditions

Published online by Cambridge University Press:  18 January 2010

Extract

Over the past few years, numerous papers have been written concerning various aspects of S.S.T. operations, the majority dealing with one or two facets. This short review considers those aspects which are of major importance when the S.S.T. is operated in non-optimum conditions and an attempt is made to indicate the relative cost penalty caused by the phenomena discussed, the performance in smooth standard conditions being taken as the datum. Little of the information presented is new and most of the points mentioned are considered in greater detail in the references. (Crown copyright, reproduced with the permission of H.M.S.O.)
