Aircraft Design: A Systems Engineering Approach
Mohammad H. Sadraey
A comprehensive approach to the air vehicle design process using the principles of systems engineering
Due to the high cost and the risks associated with development, complex aircraft systems have become a prime candidate for the adoption of systems engineering methodologies. This book presents the entire process of aircraft design based on a systems engineering approach from conceptual design phase, through to preliminary design phase and to detail design phase.
Presenting in one volume the methodologies behind aircraft design, this book covers the components and the issues affected by design procedures. The basic topics that are essential to the process, ... Read more
Readers with knowledge of the fundamental concepts of aerodynamics, propulsion, aero-structure, and flight dynamics will find this book ideal to progress towards the next stage in their understanding of the topic. Furthermore, the broad variety of design techniques covered ensures that readers have the freedom and flexibility to satisfy the design requirements when approaching real-world projects.
Key features:
• Provides full coverage of the design aspects of an air vehicle including: aeronautical concepts, design techniques and design flowcharts
• Features end of chapter problems to reinforce the learning process as well as fully solved design examples at component level
• Includes fundamental explanations for aeronautical engineering students and practicing engineers
• Features a solutions manual to sample questions on the book’s companion website
