Use of thin, all movable control surfaces on aircraft and missiles indicates that divergence rather than flutter may be primary aeroelastic problem; chordwise divergence is treated with emphasis on slender delta wings; experimental and analytical results for wings having apex half-angles of 5, 10, 15 and 20°, including calculations based on small-aspect ratio theory, lifting surface theory, and strip theory.
