Aerodynamic Design of Transport Aircraft
IOS Press 2009; US$ 109.00After the demise of Fokker in 1996 one feared that interest in aeronautical engineering would strongly diminish. Two years later the situation was re-appraised, and the interest in aeronautical engineering remained, so the course was reinstated. This title includes the author's lecture notes from these courses. more...
Aerodynamics for Engineering Students
Elsevier Science 2012; US$ 99.95Already one of the leading course texts on aerodynamics in the UK, the sixth edition welcomes a new US-based author team to keep the text current. The sixth edition has been revised to include the latest developments in compressible flow, computational fluid dynamics, and contemporary applications. Computational methods have been expanded and updated... more...
Boundary Layer Flow over Elastic Surfaces
Elsevier Science 2012; US$ 140.00While other methods of drag reduction are well-known in marine R&D and ship design environments worldwide, compliant coating drag reduction remains less well-known and poorly understood. This important book presents cutting-edge techniques and findings from research sources not generally accessible by Western researchers and engineers, aiding the... more...
Boundary Value Problems for Transonic Flow
Wiley 2003; US$ 230.00Transonic flow occurs around moving objects as they approach and cross the sound barrier. Serious problems can occur at this point, such as shock-induced flow separation which can cause the aircraft to spin out of control. Another important practical problem is the achievement of higher aerodynamic performance of aircraft at cruise conditions, which... more...
Computation of Supersonic Flow over Flying Configurations
Elsevier Science 2010; US$ 235.00This high level aerospace reference book will be useful for undergraduate, and graduate students of engineering, applied mathematics and physics. The author provides solutions for three-dimensional compressible Navier-Stokes layer subsonic and supersonic flows. * Computational work and experimental results show the real world application of computational... more...
Computational Physics of Electric Discharges in Gas Flows
De Gruyter 2012; US$ 182.00Gas discharges are of interest for many processes in mechanics, manufacturing, materials science and aerophysics. To understand the physics behind the phenomena is of key importance for the effective use and development of gas discharge devices. This worktreats methods of computational modeling of electrodischarge processes and dynamics of partially... more...

Fundamentals of Airplane Flight Mechanics
Springer 2007; US$ 84.99Flight mechanics is the application of Newton's laws to the study of vehicle trajectories (performance), stability, and aerodynamic control. This volume details the derivation of analytical solutions of airplane flight mechanics problems associated with flight in a vertical plane. It covers trajectory analysis, stability, and control. more...
Fundamentals of Modern Unsteady Aerodynamics
Springer 2010; US$ 139.99In this textbook, the author introduces the concept of unsteady aerodynamics and its underlying principles. He provides the readers with a full review of fundamental physics of the free and the forced unsteadines, the terminology and basic equations of aerodynamics ranging from incompressible flow to hypersonics. The book also covers the modern topics... more...
