Applied Computational Aerodynamics (Progress in Astronautics & Aeronautics)

To stay on the forefront of aerospace design, you need state-of-the-art knowledge on the computational power now in use. Applied Computational Aerodynamics goes beyond the theories to focus on real world applications. Richly illustrated chapters feature geometric types of problems ranging from the classic airfoil problem to the complexity of complete aircraft such as the 737, 7J7, the F-16, and the Space Shuttle launch configuration. Plus, applications for components are also detailed, including wings, high-lift systems, propulsion system components, and rotors. Featuring a complete overview of design developments and studies, with hundreds of illustrations (more than 60 in full color) spanning more than 900 pages, this is truly an impressive resource.
