{"product_id":"fundamentals-of-aircraft-and-airship-design-aiaa-education-series","title":"Fundamentals of Aircraft and Airship Design (AIAA Education Series)","description":"This book is revision and expansion of the classic 1975 aircraft design textbook that has been used worldwide for more than 30 years. Completely updated with the latest industry processes and techniques, it will benefit graduate and upper-level undergraduate students as well as practicing engineers. The aircraft is only a transport mechanism for the payload, and all design decisions must consider payload first. Simply stated, the aircraft is a dust cover. Fundamentals of Aircraft and Airship Design, Volume 1: Aircraft Design; emphasizes that the science and art of the aircraft design process is a compromise and that there is no right answer; however, there is always a best answer based on existing requirements and available technologies.\n\nCONTENTS\nPreface\nChapter 1 - Introduction\nChapter 2 - Review of Practical Aerodynamics\nChapter 3 - Aircraft Performance Methods\nChapter 4 - Aircraft Operating Envelope\nChapter 5 - Preliminary Estimate of Takeoff Weight\nChapter 6 - Estimating the Takeoff Wing Loading\nChapter 7 - Selecting the Planform and Airfoil Section\nChapter 8 - Preliminary Fuselage Sizing and Design\nChapter 9 - High-Life Devices\nChapter 10 - Takeoff and Landing Analysis\nChapter 11 - Preliminary Sizing of the Vertical and Horizontal Tails\nChapter 12 - Designing for Survivability (Stealth)\nChapter 13 - Estimating Wing-Body Aerodynamics\nChapter 14 - Propulsion System Fundamentals\nChapter 15 - Turbine Engine Inlet Design\nChapter 16 - Corrections for Turbine Engine Installation\nChapter 17 - Propeller Propulsion Systems\nChapter 18 - Propulsion System Thrust Sizing\nChapter 19 - Structures and Materials\nChapter 20 - Refined Weight Estimate\nChapter 21 - Static Stability and Control\nChapter 22 - Trim Drag and Maneuvering Flight\nChapter 23 - Control Surface Sizing Criteria\nChapter 24 - Life Cycle Cost\nChapter 25 - Trade Studies and Sizing\nAppendix A - Conversions\nAppendix B - Atmospheric Data\nAppendix C - Isentropic Compressible Flow Functions\nAppendix D - Normal Shock Functions for a Perfect Gas\nAppendix E - Plane Oblique and Conical Shocks\nAppendix F - NACA Airfoil Nomenclature and Data\nAppendix G - Aerodynamic Data of Real Aircraft\nAppendix H - Aerodynamics of Wing Body Combinations\nAppendix I - Aircraft Weights Data\nAppendix J - Propulsion Data\nAppendix K - Miscellaneous Data\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 1600867510\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: DBV.1600867510.G\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Good\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Leland Nicolai|Grant Carichner\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: Gently used with minimal wear on the corners and cover.
