   Book Review


Book News, Inc.
Presents the entire process of aircraft conceptual design, from requirements definition through initial sizing, configuration layout, analysis, sizing, and trade studies, in the same manner as seen in industry aircraft design groups. Focus is on design layout and design analysis. Because material concentrates on industry practice rather than theoretical definitions, only an elementary knowledge of mathematics is required. A simplified but complete set of first-order analytical methods is presented. Chapters cover every phase of conceptual design, including payload considerations, aerodynamics, propulsion, handling, cost analysis, and performance. This third edition adds metric data, and is revised to reflect the latest advances in technology. Includes extensive appendices with key design data. The author is president of Conceptual Research Corporation. -- Copyright © 1999 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR All rights reserved Book News, Inc.®, Portland, OR
