A damped sine-wave elevator motion was used as a basis for computing the design maneuvering load on the horizontal tail. Also investigated was the effect of control frequency on the tail load.
The results indicated that the manuevering tail-load variation computed by operatiion methods with the assumed damped sine-wave elevator motion agreed closely with the loads computed by a method currently specified for use in the U.S. Air Force structural loading requirements. This close agreement, coupled with the relative simplicity of the method using the damped sine-wave elevator motion, should encourage its use as an alternative procedure for computing the design manuevering horizontal-tail load.
