ESDU Aero W.01.01.01 has been superseded by ESDU 70011, which presents graphs of correlated lifting-surface theory results, but is retained in the Series because values from it must be used when obtaining lift-dependent drag of plane, symmetric-section wings using ESDU 66032 and in...
Part-span factors are used as part of the prediction method in various Data Items relating to high lift-devices and control surfaces. ESDU TM 172 presents analysis and background information regarding the derivation of Figure 3 in ESDU 93019, Figure 1 in ESDU 74012 and Figures 4 and 5 in...
ESDU 89034 gives an empirical method for estimating the maximum lift of aerodynamically smooth straight-tapered wings with or without camber and/or twist but with high lift devices undeflected. Any shape of section or camber line, both of which may vary spanwise, can be treated....
The standard specifies the terms for fork lift trucks and hook-on type fork arms.
4.1 This practice defines a consistent procedure for collecting surface material using clear, transparent, single sided adhesive collection medium, typically tape (also known as tape lift). 4.2 A tape lift sample collected according to this practice is intended to be used to assess...
ESDU 66031 discusses the various contributions to the drag of a lifting wing of moderate to high aspect ratio in subcritical viscous flow, considering both a cambered and twisted wing and a plane symmetrical section wing. A method of analysis is discussed for the case of plane symmetrical...
Starting from a basic knowledge of mathematics and mechanics gained in standard foundation classes, Theory of Lift: Introductory Computational Aerodynamics in MATLAB/Octave takes the reader conceptually through from the fundamental mechanics of lift to the stage of actually being able...
This standard provides methods and guidelines to prepare MEWP training materials, defines administrative criteria, and delivers elements required for proper training and familiarization. It applies to all types and sizes of MEWPs as specified in ANSI/SAIA A92.20 (design, calculations, safety...
ESDU 00029 predicts for aerofoils the centre of lift position based on thin-aerofoil theory with empirical correction. This is combined with the predicted increment in aerofoil lift coefficient from ESDU 94027 to estimate the pitching moment coefficient increment. For wings with...
ESDU 84026 provides a simple empirically derived method for estimating maximum lift coefficient. The method predicts the increment in lift coefficient by which the maximum exceeds the value at zero incidence, and a prediction method for lift coefficient at zero incidence is...
The scope of this SAE Information Report is limited to a lift crane mounted on a fixed or floating platform, lifting loads from a vessel alongside. The size of the vessel is assumed not to exceed that of a workboat as defined in 3.15 .
ESDU Aero A.S.01.03.02 gives graphs derived from linearised supersonic flow theory for the lift-curve slope of a lifting surface as a function of aspect ratio, mid-chord sweep angle (which may be positive or negative) and Mach number. The lift-curve slope is required in the...
This Standard applies to lifts and accessories used to transfer persons, specifically by suspending from above or supporting from below, between beds, chairs, stretchers, bathtubs, or other similar resting places or standing. This Standard applies to fixed and mobile lifts,...
This document covers traffic planning and selection of new passenger lift installations in office, hotel and residential buildings. The requirements and recommendations given are applicable to both simple and complex lift installations. This document gives guidance to select the most...

Scope This specification should be used for the construction and purchase of electric rider controlled fork lift trucks bought within European Automotive Operations.
This document applies to light offshore cranes including their supporting pedestals and structures. NOTE - Supporting pedestal and structures such as columns and boom rests, are covered by this document to the extent where their main purpose is to support the crane. This document is applicable to...
1.1 This test method provides information and test procedures for evaluating several performance qualities of typewriter or printer lift-off correction tapes and tabs on a comparative basis for general office use. 1.2 This standard does not purport to address the safety problems associated...
ESDU 98011 gives a method for predicting the viscous zero-lift incidence of aerofoils. The method applies to aerofoils with simple or complex camber lines and accounts for the effect of compressibility, but is limited to subcritical flows. The boundary layer thicknesses at the trailing edge...
