Notes:
It is shown that mathematical programming (MP) finds useful application in wing theory. This is illustrated by posing wing theoretical problems as programming problems within the framework of the linearized lifting surface theory. A great merit of programming techniques is their ability to accommodate inequality constraints in a problem. This feature allows a wing theoretician to expand into a domain of practical problems where qualitative constraints can be included into his formulations. A few numerical examples involving the Prandtl lifting line equation with equality and inequality constraints are given to show that the method works. Its extension to complex wing-body problems poses no conceptual difficulties, but requires further numerical experimentation.
