Yaw stabilization of landing craft
The purpose of this work was to investigate the application of pump jet propulsion and yaw angle stabilization for a landing craft going through the surf. Linear theory was used throughout the analysis of the control problem. The stability indices and derivatives were determined in part by experiment and the remainder by analytic techniques.

Unsteady aerodynamic analysis of space shuttle vehicles. Part 4: Effect of control deflections on orbiter unsteady aerodynamics [PDF]
The unsteady aerodynamics of the 040A orbiter have been explored experimentally. The results substantiate earlier predictions of the unsteady flow boundaries for a 60 deg swept delta wing at zero yaw and with no controls deflected.
