 钱学森的博士论文

(宁波大学王骥教授提供)

 

1936年,钱学森从东海岸的波士顿来到西海岸的加州理工学院,拜见力学大师冯卡门,并对大师提出的问题作出精确、简明的回答。于是冯卡门欣然接纳钱学森为自己的博士研究生。

上世纪的三0年代,世界各国飞机的飞行速度和飞行高度是空军实力强弱和空战胜负的关键。当时的航空工程面临两大难题: 1.当飞机的速度接近音速时,空气的压缩对飞行器的性能有什么影响? 2.寻求超音速飞行器的理论指导与技术设计。 美国当时的航空工业对比欧洲是处于落后阶段的,为了赢得战争,美国解决这两大难题迫在眉睫。这两个全新的课题就是钱学森博士论文的研究方向。 一九三九年钱学森以四篇博士论文获得加州理工学院航空和数学的双博士学位。这四篇论文解决了上面所述的两大难题。

钱学森论文的第一部份提出并解决了飞机在高速飞行时会产生“热障”问题。那时候没有计算器,钱学森对热的传导提出了复杂的数学计算,用一种新的近似值连续算法精确计算出飞机在高速飞行时受到空气阻力所产生的热效应。

钱学森论文的第二部份是飞机在高速飞行时,如何计算器翼表面压力的分布状况。当时航空界已知的计算方法只适用于机翼较薄、飞行速度较慢(低于零点五马赫)的飞机。冯卡门提出命题,钱学森找到了答案,师徒二人共同解决了这个航空动力学的基础问题,发表了著名的「卡门—钱学森公式」,又称「卡门—钱学森方法」。这是航空科学史上闪闪发光的一页。 “热障”理论和「卡门—钱学森公式」是所有航空飞行器的指导理论,在第二次世界大战期间以及二战以后很长一段时间,都被世界各国广泛应用于超音速飞机的设计与制造,直到电子计算器被广泛应用。

 纽约时报关于钱学森的报道

 

Qian Xuesen, Father of China’s Space Program, Dies at 98 By MICHAEL WINES Published: November 3, 2009

BEIJING — Qian Xuesen, a brilliant rocket scientist who single-handedly led China’s space and military rocketry efforts after he was drummed out of the United States during the redbaiting of the McCarthy era, died on Saturday in Beijing. He was 98.

China’s state media reported the death. Mr. Qian had been frail and bedridden in recent years.

In China, Mr. Qian was celebrated as the father of Chinese rocketry, the leader of the research that produced the nation’s first ballistic missiles, its first satellite and the Silkworm anti-ship missile.

But in the United States in the 1930s and 1940s, he was no less valuable, if not so publicly celebrated, as a pioneer in American jet and rocket technology.

As a student at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, and later as a scientist and teacher at the California Institute of Technology, Mr. Qian, also known as Tsien Hsue-shen, played a central role in early United States’ efforts to exploit jet and rocket propulsion.

As a graduate assistant at Caltech in the late 1930s, Mr. Qian helped conduct seminal research into rocket propulsion, and in the 1940s he helped found the Jet Propulsion Laboratory, now one of NASA’s premier space-exploration centers.

Mr. Qian served on the United States government’s Science Advisory Board during World War II. On the war front in Germany, he advised the Army on ballistic-missile guidance technology. At the war’s end, holding the temporary rank of lieutenant colonel, he debriefed Nazi scientists, including Werner von Braun, and was sent to analyze Hitler’s V-2 rocket facilities.
In the 1940s his mentor and colleague, the Caltech physicist Theodore von Karman, called Mr. Qian “an undisputed genius whose work was providing an enormous impetus to advances in high-speed aerodynamics and jet propulsion.” In 1949, Mr. Qian wrote a proposal for a winged space plane that the magazine Aviation Week and Space Technology, in 2007, called an inspiration for research that led to NASA’s space shuttle.

But by 1950 his American career was over. Shortly after applying for permission to visit his parents in the newly Communist China, he was stripped of his security clearance by the Federal Bureau of Investigation and accused of secretly being a Communist. The charge was based on a 1938 document of the Communist Party of the United States that showed he had attended a social gathering that the F.B.I. suspected was a meeting of the Pasadena Communist Party.Mr. Qian denied the charges, his Caltech colleagues came to his defense, and the university hired a lawyer to assist him. Mr. Qian first sought to return to China but was placed under virtual house arrest by the government; later, he sought to stay and fight the accusations, but the government sought to deport him.In 1955, Mr. Qian was sent back to China, where he was proclaimed a hero and immediately put to work developing Chinese rocketry. By many accounts, he later became a committed Communist and served on the party’s ruling body, the Central Committee.

The loyalty allegations have never been fully resolved. Aviation Week, which named Mr. Qian its man of the year in 2007, quoted Dan Kimball, a former under secretary of the Navy, as calling Mr. Qian’s deportation “the stupidest thing this country ever did.” A 1999 United States Congress report on Chinese espionage called Mr. Qian a spy, but critics say the report provides no basis other than a claim that he passed to China the secrets of the American Titan missile program, which began years after he had been deported.

Qian Xuesen was born in 1911, as the Chinese imperial government was collapsing, in Hangzhou, in eastern China. He earned a mechanical engineering degree in 1934 in Shanghai. At the age of 23 he went to the United States on a scholarship to study aeronautical engineering at M.I.T. Later, at Caltech’s Guggenheim Aeronautical Laboratory, Mr. Qian met Mr. von Karman, who recommended him for the Science Advisory Board and gave him the lead role in research that developed the first American solid-fuel rocket to be successfully launched.After his deportation, Mr. Qian wrote a position paper for Chinese leaders on aviation and defense, according to the state-run news service Xinhua.Under his leadership, China developed its first generation of “Long March” missiles and, in 1970, launched its first satellite. Most of China’s recent space achievements, like its manned space program, began long after Mr. Qian’s retirement.Mr. Qian never returned to the United States. In a 2002 published reminiscence, a Caltech colleague and professor, Frank Marble, stated that he believed that Mr. Qian had “lost faith in the American government” but that he had “always had very warm feelings for the American people.”

Caltech gave Mr. Qian its distinguished alumni award in 2001.

Introduction to Micromechanics
Khanh Chau Le
(Institute of Mechanics, Ruhr University Bochum Universitätsstr. Bochum, Germany)

 

Book Description:
This textbook is a modern introduction to micromechanics and its applications. It analyzes various continuum models of solids with evolving microstructure based on the first principles of mechanics and thermodynamics.

For this circle of readers the emphasis is made on the material modeling and the constructive methods of solution. To help the students become more proficient, each chapter ends with exercises, of which some can be solved effectively by using the Mathematica. Difficult tasks are marked with an asterisk.
