About this Item

Neuware - Aircraft design process is an engineering process concerned with the design of aircrafts according to standards of customer safety and comfort, technical specifications, and physical and economic constraints. Aircraft are designed according to specific purpose. Amphibious airplanes are designed so that they can operate both on land and water, while helicopters are engineered to be able to hover over an area over a period of time. Some other factors influencing it are space limitations, runway and safety issues, and pavement design. An understanding of aerodynamics, propulsion, controls, structure and mass is vital to aircraft design. Design is structured into the three phases of conceptual design, preliminary design phase and detail design phase. This book is a valuable compilation of topics, ranging from the basic to the most complex theories and principles in the field of aircraft design. It elucidates the concepts and innovative models around prospective developments with respect to aircraft design. This textbook, with its detailed analyses and data, will prove immensely beneficial to professionals and students involved in this area at various levels.
