One of my neighbors conducted studies and published results for Lockheed in Georgia in the 1970's. This was during the development of very large transport aircraft, and solving the associated aerospace challenges. Those studies was usually cross-checked and reviewed by another PHD at another base (Wright-Patterson). The available pool of potential reviewers would have been small, and the profession was insular (US and NATO scientists mostly). Also, no one had a football field size wind tunnel, and computers were primitive/non-existent for simulations. One of them included printed source code. https://apps.dtic.mil/sti/tr/pdf/ADA000431.pdf https://apps.dtic.mil/sti/tr/pdf/ADA000431.pdf
