The Effects of the Proposed Larger Aircraft on Airport Capacity in the United States
… 2000, Airbus Industrie, Boeing Corporation and McDonnell Douglas are making plans or are in the process of building large transports. Airbus has built the A340/A330 and is planning the now named A3XX, a 600 plus seater. Boeing is currently flying the 747-400 which holds up to 570 passengers. In …

International Merger Conflicts Between the U.S. and the EU and Their Implications on Development of Merger Controls of the Korean Antitrust Law a Comparative Study of the U.S. and EU Competition Laws with the Focus on the Ciba-Geigy/Sandoz, Boeing/McDonnell Douglas, and GE/Honeywell Cases
… authorities—the Ciba-Geigy/Sandoz, Boeing/McDonnell Douglas and GE/Honeywell proposed mergers - triggered a vigorous debate between the U.S. and EU antitrust officials over merger policy. These merger conflicts between the U.S. and the EU provide developing countries with an excellent …

Parameter Estimation of Fundamental Technical Aircraft Information Applied to Aircraft Performance
… The results of this method, applied to the McDonnell Douglas DC-10 and Northrop F-5, highlight many of these benefits and pitfalls, and show varied levels of success. A groundwork has been laid to show that this concept is viable, and extension of this work to additional aircraft is possible …

Tensile behavior of unidirectional and cross-ply ceramic matrix composites
… ply was then compared to actual data supplied by McDonnell Douglas Corporation. While the Blackglas™ material showed good correlation, the GCMC did not. Analysis indicates that the applicability of this technique is strongly influenced by the initial microstructure of the composite, i.e., …

Aerospace mergers and acquisitions from a lean enterprise perspective
… For example, the merger between Boeing and McDonnell Douglas is between companies at a similar level of lean maturity, while Vought's acquisition of Aerostructure required integration between a low-level lean company and a company with more advanced lean initiatives. The thesis provides …

Aircraft stability and departure prediction using Eigenvalue Sensitivity analysis
… package is tested using aerodynamic data of the McDonnell-Douglas F / A-18C Hornet. Bare airframe, controls fixed stability is analyzed, and its sensitivity to data uncertainty and to non-zero angular rates is examined. The Hornet's bare airframe stability characteristics are then compared to …

Active Flow Control of a Three-Element Airfoil in Unbounded Flow and in Ground Effect
… is a three-element airfoil developed by NASA/McDonnell Douglas for which high quality flow field data is available. As a result, it has been a subject of many Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) simulations in the literature. In this research, CFD simulations are performed using commercial CFD …

Trim Angle of Attack of Flexible Wings Using Non-Linear Aerodynamics
… aeroelasticity research at Boeing (previously McDonnell Douglas) Long Beach. The trim angle of attack is calculated for a range of desired lift values. In addition to the Newton's method algorithm, a non derivative method (NDM) based on fixed point iteration, typical of fixed angle of attack …

Mixed-Method Analyses of Federal Court Decisions During 1980-2007 Involving Race and Sex Discrimination Under Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and Faculty Tenure Denial Decisions in Higher Education
… demonstrates that the burden of proof under the McDonnell Douglas theory is much easier for institutions than for faculty. While case outcomes do not appear to be influenced by plaintiffs race or sex, outcomes do appear to be influenced by court level. The data indicates that plaintiff s …
