where 6 is the thickness ratio <strong>of</strong> the section, and cz3 is the mean incidence.<br />
These results show three aerodynamic parameters: IJM, an altitude parameter;<br />
Mb, a thickness parameter, and Mar,, a mean lncldence parameter. This result<br />
is specifically for a double-wedge section, but Chawla shows that the results<br />
are the same for more general sections, though the thickness parameter applies<br />
only within a family <strong>of</strong> shapes, <strong>of</strong> course. The slgniflcance <strong>of</strong> Id6 and Ma,<br />
is in agreement with the results <strong>of</strong> hypersonic small-disturbance theory (Appendix II)<br />
and <strong>of</strong> experiment, which show that these are similarity parameters for hypersonic<br />
flows.<br />
Besides the parameters from Chawla's analysis, other factors have been<br />
found to be significant. These are pr<strong>of</strong>ile shape, the effeot <strong>of</strong> strong leadingedge<br />
shock waves, leading-edge bluntness, and aercdynamlc nonlinearities. The<br />
effects <strong>of</strong> changes <strong>of</strong> @d, M6, Ma, and these other parameters on flutter <strong>of</strong> the<br />
section will now be discussed.<br />
