Revised 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. New features include over ten new aerodynamic analysis programs using Matlab, OpenVSP, and XFOIL get students up to speed on modern computational approaches; new end-of-chapter team projects show students how to work together to solve larger, more important aerodynamic problems; new and expanded coverage of propellers, UAVs, transonic wings, wingtip devices, drones, hypersonic aircraft, and aircraft design; and new pedagogical features including look-ahead navigation, expanded use of SI units and concept boxes, and new Aerodynamics Computation boxes along with new case studies. 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.
