Computing Trimmed, Mean-Camber Surfaces At Minimum DragVLMD computer program determines subsonic mean-camber surfaces of trimmed noncoplanar planforms with minimum vortex drag at specified lift coefficient. Up to two planforms designed together. Method used that of subsonic vortex lattice method of chord loading specification, ranging from rectangular to triangular, left specified by user. Program versatile and applied to isolated wings, wing/canard configurations, tandem wing, and wing/-winglet configuration. Written in FORTRAN.
