Aircraft performance is a core subject for students in aerospace engineering at undergraduate level as part of flight dynamics and aircraft design courses, and at graduate level on an applied basis. It is also of utmost concern for practicing aircraft engineers, aircraft operations managers and organizations dealing with air traffic control, flight and flying regulations, standards, safety, environment, and the complex financial aspects of flying aircraft. Ideally positioned to meet both academic and professional reference needs, Filippone covers in detail each element of the performance of aircraft to ensure readers will use this book in the classroom and throughout their professional aviation career.
* Unique coverage of flight performance of fixed and rotary wing aircraft in a unified manner, including optimisation, emissions control and regulation
* Ideal for students, aeronautical engineering capstone projects and for widespread professional reference in the aero industry, civil and military sectors
* End of chapter exercises, Instructors Manual and acompanying website with downloadable flight performance modelling code

Buch. Condition: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Calculation and optimisation of flight performance is required to design or select new aircraft, efficiently operate existing aircraft, and upgrade aircraft. It provides critical data for aircraft certification, accident investigation, fleet management, flight regulations and safety. This book presents an unrivalled range of advanced flight performance models for both transport and military aircraft, including the unconventional ends of the envelopes. Topics covered include the numerical solution of supersonic acceleration, transient roll, optimal climb of propeller aircraft, propeller performance, long-range flight with en-route stop, fuel planning, zero-gravity flight in the atmosphere, VSTOL operations, ski jump from aircraft carrier, optimal flight paths at subsonic and supersonic speed, range-payload analysis of fixed- and rotary wing aircraft, performance of tandem helicopters, lower-bound noise estimation, sonic boom, and more.This book will be a valuable text for undergraduate and post-graduate level students of aerospace engineering. It will also be an essential reference and resource for practicing aircraft engineers, aircraft operations managers and organizations handling air traffic control, flight and flying regulations, standards, safety, environment, and the complex financial aspects of flying aircraft. Unique coverage of fixed and rotary wing aircraft in a unified manner, including optimisation, emissions control and regulation. Ideal for students, aeronautical engineering capstone projects, and for widespread professional reference in the aerospace industry.
