Introduction to Aerospace Engineering: Basic Principles of Flight provides an accessible introduction to the field of aerospace engineering. Designed to align with the curriculum of a single-semester course, the book gives students a broad introduction to the foundational concepts they will further explore as they advance their students. Topics covered include the laws of aerodynamics, pressure, and atmospheric modeling, aircraft configurations, low-speed aerofoils, high-lift devices, thrust, the forces of flight, stability and control, rockets, and propulsion. Detailed illustrations, end-of-chapter summaries, and review questions help students understand the concepts presented. An online companion site includes a solutions manual and lecture slides for instructors.
