Languages : en
Pages : 586
Book Description
A textbook for an advanced undergraduate course in which Zipfel (aerospace engineering, U. of Florida) introduces the fundamentals of an approach to, or step in, design that has become a field in and of itself. The first part assumes an introductory course in dynamics, and the second some specialized knowledge in subsystem technologies. Practicing engineers in the aerospace industry, he suggests, should be able to cover the material without a tutor. Rather than include a disk, he has made supplementary material available on the Internet. Annotation copyrighted by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR

Python for Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering
Author: Alex Kenan
Publisher: Alex Kenan
ISBN: 1736060600
Category : Computers
Languages : en
Pages : 210
Book Description
The traditional computer science courses for engineering focus on the fundamentals of programming without demonstrating the wide array of practical applications for fields outside of computer science. Thus, the mindset of “Java/Python is for computer science people or programmers, and MATLAB is for engineering” develops. MATLAB tends to dominate the engineering space because it is viewed as a batteries-included software kit that is focused on functional programming. Everything in MATLAB is some sort of array, and it lends itself to engineering integration with its toolkits like Simulink and other add-ins. The downside of MATLAB is that it is proprietary software, the license is expensive to purchase, and it is more limited than Python for doing tasks besides calculating or data capturing. This book is about the Python programming language. Specifically, it is about Python in the context of mechanical and aerospace engineering. Did you know that Python can be used to model a satellite orbiting the Earth? You can find the completed programs and a very helpful 595 page NSA Python tutorial at the book’s GitHub page at https://www.github.com/alexkenan/pymae. Read more about the book, including a sample part of Chapter 5, at https://pymae.github.io

Applied Cartesian Tensors for Aerospace Simulations
Author: David Melvin Henderson
Publisher: AIAA (American Institute of Aeronautics & Astronautics)
ISBN:
Category : Mathematics
Languages : en
Pages : 234
Book Description
This book presents a new approach to aerospace flight vehicle equations of motion based on a unifying tensorbased formulation. Covering the fundamental concepts of the geometry of space, applied mechanics, and aerospace engineering analysis, the author builds on these flight mechanics essentials to describe the motion of aircraft and space vehicles. Concepts are amplified by the presentation of aerospace applications in use today and that are tied directly to the material presented. The basic concepts of Cartesian analysis are developed along with the application of tensor notation to engineering analysis. Tensor notation (the Einstein summation convention) is introduced to give the reader exact component equations and to demonstrate its value in multi-variable analysis. By applying the summation notation in the analysis, the author believes that a more complete description of the dynamic problems of aerospace vehicle motion can be offered, and that this approach is already finding applications in aerospace engineering technologies.

Book Description
Now you can teach yourself how to apply the power of C++ to simulate multiobject aerospace vehicles. Building on your basic understanding of C++ and your familiarity with flight dynamics, this multimedia, interactive CD-ROM will lead you from simple satellite simulations to unmanned combat air vehicles and sophisticated six-degree-of-freedom simulations of intercept missiles. The 16 labs, divided into 32 training units, will bring to life polymorphism, inheritance, and encapsulation by hands-on experimentation with 27 increasingly more complex programs. In 38 exercises you apply your skills and check your progress against the provided solutions. This CD-ROM complements the textbook "Modeling and Simulation of Aerospace Vehicle Dynamics, AIAA Education Series. It shows you how aerodynamics, propulsion, flight control, and navigation and guidance are translated into C++ code and combined to simulate full-up aerospace vehicles. Besides the book, all you need is the Microsoft Visual C++ 6 compiler and the Microsoft Explorer 6 browser. Included is the link to the CADAC Web Site where you may apply for the free CADAC CD with the CADAC Studio plotting programs. You will be submerged into a total learning experience with video and audio clips and over one thousand hyperlinks connecting the 335 training charts. Programming progresses step-wise from the simple concept of functions to the most sophisticated C++ feature of run-time polymorphism. Best of all, the course has been evaluated by students of the University of Florida and received high marks for clarity and content, while they earned three academic credits.
