Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Every machine that flies obeys the same handful of principles. This book teaches you all of them.Flight is one of humanity's oldest dreams and most unforgiving engineering challenges. A wing cannot simply be made stronger; every gram must be lifted, carried, and paid for. A spacecraft cannot be repaired once it's gone. Aerospace engineering is the discipline that turns physical law into machines that survive environments the human body never could - and Fundamentals of Aerospace Engineering Handbook is the single, connected foundation that finally makes it click.From the air a wing meets to the orbits a spacecraft keeps, this handbook builds the essentials in one deliberate arc. No hand-waving, no memorizing formulas you don't understand. Every idea is developed from stated assumptions, every equation is defined before it's used, and every worked example is carried all the way to a real number - with the units tracked at each step, exactly the way a working engineer actually reasons.Written for upper-level students and early-career engineers, it treats aerodynamics, propulsion, structures, stability, orbital mechanics, avionics, and whole-vehicle design not as separate subjects, but as one coherent way of thinking about things that fly.Inside, you'll master: The flight environment, aerodynamics, lift and drag, airfoils, wings, and high-speed compressible flow and shock wavesAircraft performance - range, endurance, climb, turns, and the flight envelopeStability, control, and the dynamic modes that make an aircraft flyableStructures and materials - stress, bending, buckling, fatigue, and safety marginsAir-breathing and rocket propulsion, from the Brayton cycle to the rocket equationOrbital mechanics - transfers, Kepler's laws, and interplanetary trajectoriesSpacecraft systems, attitude control, avionics, guidance and navigationHow it all comes together in real conceptual vehicle designEach of the fifteen chapters includes fully worked examples, practice problems with verified answers, and clear derivations you can follow with a pencil in hand. SI and US units throughout, plus a complete glossary, reference tables, and appendices you'll return to for years.If you've ever wanted to understand not just that aircraft and spacecraft fly, but why - and to reason about them with real quantitative confidence - this is where it begins.Your journey from first principles to flight starts here.…
