520 _aRevised and expanded to reflect cutting-edge innovation in aerodynamics, and packed with new features to support learning, the seventh edition of this classic textbook introduces the fundamentals of aerodynamics using clear explanations and real-world examples. Structured around clear learning objectives, this is the ideal textbook for undergraduate students in aerospace engineering, and for graduate students and professional engineers seeking a readable and accessible reference. Over 10 new Aerodynamics Computation boxes that bring students up to speed on modern computational approaches for performing aerodynamic analysis, including various Matlab® programs, OpenVSP, XFOIL, CBAero, Kestrel, and other analysis tools. New end-of-chapter team projects show students how to work together to solve larger, more important aerodynamic problems, in many cases using the computational approaches listed above. New and expanded coverage of propellers, UAVs, transonic wings, wingtip devices, drones, hypersonic aircraft, and aircraft design. New pedagogical features including Look Ahead navigation, expanded use of SI units in new homework problems, and many new Aerodynamics Concepts boxes featuring advanced experimental aircraft concepts. Additional references in each chapter that bring current advancements in aerodynamics into each part of the book.
