Description for Flight Dynamics
Hardback. Num Pages: 864 pages, 12 halftones. 261 line illus. 26 tables. BIC Classification: TRP. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational; (U) Tertiary Education (US: College). Dimension: 241 x 163 x 49. Weight in Grams: 1372.
Flight Dynamics takes a new approach to the science and mathematics of aircraft flight, unifying principles of aeronautics with contemporary systems analysis. While presenting traditional material that is critical to understanding aircraft motions, it does so in the context of modern computational tools and multivariable methods. Robert Stengel devotes particular attention to models and techniques that are appropriate for analysis, simulation, evaluation of flying qualities, and control system design. He establishes bridges to classical analysis and results, and explores new territory that was treated only inferentially in earlier books. This book combines a highly accessible style of presentation with contents ... Read more

Reviews for Flight Dynamics
"[A] tour de force of a text... This is an ambitious and important work... As the very latest of this genre, Prof. Stengel's hefty volume brings the material up to the minute, tackles more topics with more depth, buttresses its analysis with MATLAB examples, and still does a superb job of stimulating and informing the reader... [I]ts push toward computational ... Read more
