Abstract
We construct analytical solutions for the problem of nonlinear supersonic flow past slender bodies of revolution due to small amplitude oscillations. The method employed is based on the splitting of the time dependent small perturbation equation to a nonlinear time independent partial differential equation (P.D.E.) concerning the steady flow, and a linear time dependent one, concerning the unsteady flow. Solutions in the form of three parameters family of surfaces for the first equation are constructed, while solutions including one arbitrary function for the second equation are extracted. As an application the evaluation of the small perturbation velocity resultants for a flow past a right circular cone is obtained making use of convenient boundary and initial conditions in accordance with the physical problem.
