Aircraft Design: A Conceptual Approach, Fourth Edition (Aiaa Education Series)

"I never felt that I had a good formulation (design) until I read the introduction to Daniel Raymer Aircraft Design: A Conceptual Approach Raymer ... implies a design that involves more than drawing pretty shapes and then shoe-Horning people., Machinery, and structural members into it involves the art of it ... .. The book Raymer took the view, the practical, rather than academic development of these designs include not only aerodynamic, stability, and analysis of stress .... but also things about the general arrangement and interstitial interaction competing design considerations that really grout that holds the design together -. Peter Garrison, in flight, in May 1997 Reliable - as usual from AIAA, the best source of technical quality literature plane .-- Craig Roberts, Roberts Sport Aircraft Reference Position - more homebuilders / designer should buy this text Keep making your book available for EAA -! Brad Knapp, EAA's as if this book is written specifically for me and bring closure to the understanding of theoretical concepts .-- James "

Book Description
Summerfield Book Award Winner, Award-winning Aviation-Space Writers Association of Excellence, and with more than 30,000 copies sold, this is a consistent best-selling titles AIAA. This book presents a highly regarded around the conceptual aircraft design process - from requirements definition to initial size, configuration layout, analysis, size, and trade studies - in the same way seen in the design of the aircraft industry. Interesting and readable, this book has more than 900 pages of design methods, illustrations, tips, explanations, and equations, and has extensive appendices with key data essential to the design. This book is the text of the required design at various universities around the world and is a favorite practicing design engineers. The new fourth edition improved in many areas, with repair and rework of the text, size and expanded methods of analysis, and up-to-date treatments of emerging technologies and concepts. A new section provides an introduction to spaceflight and rockets, including the analysis of thrust and vehicle size for the launch and planetary missions. Appendix revised and additional exam questions are provided.
