The disturbance produced by bursting diaphragms with compressed air' by William Payman and Wilfred Charles Furness Shepherd to J D Griffith Davies, Assistant Secretary of The Royal Society |
| Date | 11 April 1940 |
| Description | Sectional committee: Physics
Recommended for publication in Proceedings. The paper could be improved by introducing a further compari son between the experimental results and theory. The authors could also add to their list of authorities. They have not referenced earlier work on this subject, instead focusing on the work of later authors who were themselves ignorant of earlier work.
Includes letter which states that his name may be given to the authors, if they wish to discuss matters more fully.
