Description for Computational Modelling and Simulation of Aircraft and the Environment
This book is a comprehensive reference on deriving and developing computational models from basic physical & mathematical principles, giving the reader sufficient information to be able to represent the basic architecture of air vehicles and their embedded systems and to then be able to apply those models in analysis and simulation. Series: Aerospace Series. Num Pages: 382 pages, Illustrations. BIC Classification: TRP. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational; (UP) Postgraduate, Research & Scholarly. Dimension: 253 x 175 x 27. Weight in Grams: 808.
This first volume of Computational Modelling of Aircraft and the Environment provides a comprehensive guide to the derivation of computational models from basic physical & mathematical principles, giving the reader sufficient information to be able to represent the basic architecture of the synthetic environment. Highly relevant to practitioners, it takes into account the multi-disciplinary nature of the aerospace environment and the integrated nature of the models needed to represent it. Coupled with the forthcoming Volume 2: Aircraft Models and Flight Dynamics it represents a complete reference to the modelling and simulation of aircraft and the environment.

Reviews for Computational Modelling and Simulation of Aircraft and the Environment
"Overall this is an excellent book which leads the reader though a clear description of the subject and is easily navigated so that it also makes a good reference. I would not hesitate to recommend this book to novice and experienced practitioners of Earth modelling, inertial navigation, GPS systems and the like." (The Aeronautical Journal, May 2010)
