I have an airplane and have done a gust response analysis - for a discrete vertical gust. I used the nastran example from chapter 9 section 1. How can I do a side gust analysis - gust 90 degree angle to gravity vector? Can you point me to an example.

The gust direction is specified in the (+) z-axis direction of the aerodynamic coordinate system identified on field 2 of the AERO bulk data entry. So it has been suggested that the z-axis can be oriented in the lateral direction of the vehicle to obtain the lateral gust. However, I do not have an example of a lateral gust. Perhaps there is some info in the published literature.
