Introduction to Aircraft Flight Dynamics is geared directly toward senior undergraduate engineering students and beginning graduate students. The author uses linear algebraic principles and notations to establish airframe equations of motion. The use of this dimensional approach to stability derivatives when describing aerodynamic forces and moments in the six governing relations assures that the solutions to given problems remain in real time and frequency. In addition, the textbook uses modern control theory concepts to introduce the airframe as a plant matrix operator. Consistent reference is made to matrix algebra-oriented software, MATLAB®, as a tool for solving aircraft-related problems in both the linear and nonlinear forms. Contemporary analytical methods are also employed to describe the aerodynamics involved in flight vehicle motion and to develop a rationale for modeling and solving related problems in aircraft dynamics. The author also discusses modern control theory methods. Professors!

Booknews A textbook for a course introducing the flight mechanics of aerospace vehicles at the senior undergraduate or first-year graduate level of an aeronautical engineering program. Highly desirable but not absolutely prerequisite is a familiarity with fluid mechanics, aircraft performance, and static stability and control. Major themes include what an influence coefficient means in a set of equations, using linear algebra to model and solve problems, and modern control theory methods. The problems and examples demonstrate desktop computing that can now solve complex problems. No bibliography. Annotation c. by Book News, Inc., Portland, Or.
