Summary of Reports and Publications Issued on Contract N6onr-24424

Abstract

This memorandum is to list technical reports prepared under Contract No. N6onr-24424 during its life, which extended from April 1, 1949 through April 30, 1954. As may be seen from the report titles listed below, the research dealt almost exclusively with the dynamics of underwater bodies running in open cavities. A major portion of the work dealt with the basic hydrodynamics of this type of flow, and hence was unclassified. However, part of the work which dealt with some of the more specialized aspects of the problem was, of necessity, classified. In all, eight unclassified reports and five classified reports were prepared. Mr. J. P. O'Neill was in charge of the studies during the active life of the project, and, as may be seen from the report authors, he was ably assisted by several active workers, principal among whom were the following: Messrs. Byrne Perry, Taras Kiceniuk, W. M. Swanson and Dr. E. Y. Hsu.
