DESCRIPTION:
In Aerodynamic Design of Transport Aircraft, an effort is made to bridge the gap between these two classes of textbooks. Modern swept-wing-, tail-surface- and control-surface-design is discussed. His last position in a 32-year career was as Head of Flight Physics. Some of the areas we publish in: -Biomedicine -Oncology -Artificial intelligence -Databases and information systems -Maritime engineering -Nanotechnology -Geoengineering -All aspects of physics -E-governance -E-commerce -The knowledge economy -Urban studies -Arms control -Understanding and responding to terrorism -Medical informatics -Computer Sciences. He was also appointed part-time Professor at the Aerospace Faculty of Delft University of Technology, a position he held for 9 years. Ed Obert joined the Fokker Aircraft Company in 1964. The latter class usually pays little attention to flow physics. In 45 chapters the text moves from first principles through the whole gamut of theoretical approaches backed up by a wealth of experimental and flight trials data. Although few formula are presented, relations are discussed in a descriptive manner
Dieter Schmitt, TU Munchen / Airbus Industry (retired) . Schaufele, V.P. Greatly recommended.'' - A.H. ''Good value for the amount of information it contains. Ed Obert has been lecturing for a long period of time. To this reviewer's knowledge there is no comparable book available that presents such a wealth of actual information related to the subject of transport aircraft aerodynamic design.'' - Roger D. ''A very comprehensive work containing much valuable information on aircraft design in the US and Europe over the last 50 years. Dr.-Ing. Very valuable information for all engineers, trying t
Absolutely invaluable modern text on aerodynamic design I bought the book not long after its release and have meant to write a detailed review for some time. It surprises me that after almost 2 years there has been 0 review on Amazon for this amazing title on the scarcely discussed topic of aerodynamic design. Have my like-minded peers been secretly buying and using this book without giving a review in the hope of denying hesitant potentia. Woody said Aero design resource. Great practical information.
