Theory of Lift

G D McBain
4.9/5 (16877 ratings)
Description:Starting from a basic knowledge of mathematics and mechanics gained in standard foundation classes, "Theory of Lift: Introductory Computational Aerodynamics in MATLAB/Octave" takes the reader conceptually through from the fundamental mechanics of lift to the stage of actually being able to make practical calculations and predictions of the coefficient of lift for realistic wing profile and planform geometries.The classical framework and methods of aerodynamics are covered in detail and the reader is shown how they may be used to develop simple yet powerful MATLAB or Octave programs that accurately predict and visualise the dynamics of real wing shapes, using lumped vortex, panel, and vortex lattice methods.This book contains all the mathematical development and formulae required in standard incompressible aerodynamics as well as dozens of small but complete working programs which can be put to use immediately using either the popular MATLAB or free Octave computional modelling packages.Key features: Synthesizes the classical foundations of aerodynamics with hands-on computation, emphasizing interactivity and visualization.Includes complete source code for all programs, all listings having been tested for compatibility with both MATLAB and Octave.Companion website (www.wiley.com/go/mcbain) hosting codes and solutions."Theory of Lift: Introductory Computational Aerodynamics in MATLAB/Octave" is an introductory text for graduate and senior undergraduate students on aeronautical and aerospace engineering courses and also forms a valuable reference for engineers and designers.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
