Aeroelasticity — New Challenges and Problems

  • Chapter
Aeronautical Research in Germany

Abstract

The interruption of activities in the area of aeronautical engineering after World War Two, issued by the Allies, also had the consequence that almost all Germans concerned with aero elastics emigrated to the West, like USA, England, and France. Russia recruited by force the rest of the engineering personnel, or turned it to other occupations within Germany. The DVL in Berlin-Adlershof, located in the Eastern Occupation Zone, disappeared completely, and activities at the AVA in Göttingen ceased on August 21,1945. Hans Georg Küssner and a small team still worked there until the end of 1946 for the British “Ministry of Supply” on the “Göttingen Monographs” [1], edited by Albert Betz, where the results of the aero elastic research between 1939 and 1945 were summarized. The impressive research work “1939–1946” related to unsteady aerodynamics presented there was again as summary published by Hans Georg Küssner and Hans Billing [2] in 1953. Starting in 1947 and lasting until 1953, all scientific work in the field of aeroelasticity in Germany ceased.
