General Aviation Aircraft Design: Applied Methods and Procedures by Snorri Gudmu

Description: General Aviation Aircraft Design by Snorri Gudmundsson General Aviation Aircraft Design, Second Edition, continues to be the engineers best source for answers to realistic aircraft design questions. The book has been expanded to provide design guidance for additional classes of aircraft, including seaplanes, biplanes, UAS, high-speed business jets, and electric airplanes. In addition to conventional powerplants, design guidance for battery systems, electric motors, and complete electric powertrains is offered. The second edition contains new chapters:Thrust Modeling for Gas TurbinesLongitudinal Stability and ControlLateral and Directional Stability and ControlThese new chapters offer multiple practical methods to simplify the estimation of stability derivatives and introduce hinge moments and basic control system design. Furthermore, all chapters have been reorganized and feature updated material with additional analysis methods. This edition also provides an introduction to design optimization using a wing optimization as an example for the beginner.Written by an engineer with more than 25 years of design experience, professional engineers, aircraft designers, aerodynamicists, structural analysts, performance analysts, researchers, and aerospace engineering students will value the book as the classic go-to for aircraft design. FORMAT Hardcover LANGUAGE English CONDITION Brand New Author Biography Dr. Snorri Gudmundsson served from 1995-2009 at Cirrus Aircraft. He served in various engineering roles in the development of several aircraft, including the Cirrus SR20 and SR22 aircraft. From 2005-2009, he served as the Chief Aerodynamicist, where he was responsible for the aerodynamics of the SF50 Vision jet (recipient of the 2017 Collier Trophy). He had two appointments a Designated Engineering Representative (DER) for the FAA, as a Structural and Flight Analyst. He has contributed to the certification of several aircraft. This includes development and certification flight and structural testing. He has conducted load analysis, stability and control evaluation, and performance analysis on a variety of single and multi-engine aircraft. In 2010, Dr. Gudmundsson joined the faculty at Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University, where he is currently an Associate Professor of Aerospace Engineering, teaching aircraft design and aerodynamics.Dr. Snorri has a Youtube channel on Aircraft Design: Table of Contents 1.

Derivation of landing side-constraint Review "Gudmundsson has set a benchmark for textbooks on aircraft design. Within its declared bounds this book is remarkably comprehensive, with introductory material, clearly presented mathematical tools with assumptions and derivations, notes on when and where to apply them and numerous real-world examples.Gudmundsson truly has a feel for design, something he tries to convey throughout, describing each task, the nature of the designers approach and the wide-ranging set of constraints to be addressed. As well as all the analytical work described above, aircraft design requires graphic skills. A real pleasure in this book is the high quality of the illustrations; Gudmundsson is right to be proud of them.Of the many textbooks on aircraft design this is my favourite. The authors declared aim remained, as with the first edition, to gather information and procedures helpful to the designer. He has achieved this to a very impressive standard. By including all aspects, even organisation and management of the process, he has made this a valuable and comprehensive go-to reference source." --John M Robertson, CEng MIMechE MRAeS, RAeS General Aviation Group Feature Discusses the most frequently used methods in conceptual aircraft design Covers various handling and stability topics such as roll, yaw, pitch competing control authority especially at low speeds, and the effects of uncommanded thrust/pitch reversal on control Features updated material to all the chapters including new sections to chapter 4 (Aircraft Conceptual Layout) and chapter 7 (Selecting the Power Plant), the addition of chapters on stability and control directed squarely at GA aircraft design and sizing, as well as regulations updated to "new" 14 CFR Part 23 Uses real-world examples and actual aircraft designs such as the Cirrus SR-22, solved examples, and derivations Details ISBN0128184655 Short Title General Aviation Aircraft Design Language English Edition 2nd ISBN-10 0128184655 ISBN-13 9780128184653 Format Hardcover Subtitle Applied Methods and Procedures DEWEY 629.13334 Place of Publication Woburn Country of Publication United States Pages 1142 US Release Date 2022-04-06 UK Release Date 2022-04-06 Illustrations 700 illustrations (600 in full color); Illustrations, unspecified Author Snorri Gudmundsson Publisher Elsevier - Health Sciences Division Edition Description 2nd edition Year 2022 Publication Date 2022-04-06 Imprint Butterworth-Heinemann Inc Replaces 9780123973085 Alternative 9780128226476 Audience Tertiary & Higher Education NZ Release Date 2022-01-24 AU Release Date 2022-01-24 We've got this At The Nile, if you're looking for it, we've got it.
