商品簡介
The author's comprehensive lecture notes, accumulated during 45 years of teaching aircraft design at Cranfield University, provided the basis for this valuable reference text which offers a straightforward, systematic approach to the quantitative derivation of the initial structural concept. Readers will find a simple, logical, sequence to derive the form, location, and approximate sizing of the main members of the airframe as a precursor to a comprehensive structural analysis and design refinement: uniquely comprehensive source of information; written by an internationally recognized authority; fills a void in the aerospace literature; and is destined to become a classic reference text.
Graduate- and postgraduate-level aeronautical students will welcome the approach offered by Aircraft Loading and Structural Layout. Practising engineers in the aircraft industry will find a useful loading actions reference, providing a simple method for the derivation of initial structural data for input to advance analysis programs and the interpretation of the output from them.
