Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
Winner of the AIAA Summerfield Book Award and the Aviation/Space Writers Association Award of Excellence, this bestselling textbook presents the entire process of aircraft conceptual designfrom requirements definition to initial sizing, configuration layout, analysis, sizing, optimization, and trade studies. Widely used in industry and government aircraft design groups, Aircraft Design: A Conceptual Approach is also the design text at major universities around the world. A virtual encyclopedia of engineering, it is known for its completeness, easytoread style, and realworld approach to the process of design.In this sixth edition Dan Raymer has expanded and updated his presentation of fastmoving technologies, added lots of new material, and rewritten introductory material to make it even more 'userfriendly.' Given the evergrowing importance of electric propulsion, he has added a whole new chapter entitled Electric Aircraft. This presents technologies, designto guidance, and rules of thumb, and offers electric aircraft performance and sizing equations derived in a format familiar to those designing conventionallypowered airplanes.This encyclopedic book covers every topic necessary to the understanding of aircraft design. Preliminary sizing, aerodynamics, structures, stability and control, propulsion, configuration layout, performance, cost analysis, and much more are all presented starting from first principles and building to a set of tools allowing the reader to actually do a realistic job of aircraft conceptual design. All topics are presented from the point of view of the aircraft designer, not the specialist in any given topic area.After 19 chapters detailing the way to design 'normal' aircraft, Raymer concludes with four more chapters describing the design of moreexotic flight vehicles including electric aircraft, helicopters, vertical takeoff jets, hypersonic aircraft, launch vehicles, airships, flying wings, forwardswept wings, asymmetric airplanes, and much more. Enjoy!
