... Aeroelasticity has been to provide both a textbook for advanced engineering students and a reference book for practicing engineers . In selecting material for the book it was the authors ' conviction that not only the practical aspects ...

Geared toward advanced undergraduates and graduate students, this outstanding text surveys aeroelastic problems, their historical background, basic physical concepts, and the principles of analysis.

Geared toward professional engineers, this volume will be helpful for students, too.

The book begins with a discussion on static behavior, and moves on to static instability and divergence, dynamic behavior leading up to flutter, and fluid structure interaction problems.

The book focuses on the basic understanding of the concepts required in learning about aeroelasticity, from observation, reasoning, and understanding fundamental physical principles.

Key features of this new edition include: • Uses a unified simple aeroelastic model throughout the book • Major revisions to chapters on aeroelasticity • Updates and reorganization of chapters involving Finite Elements • Some ...

This book is the sixth edition. It is suitable for one or more courses at the advanced undergraduate level and graduate level to cover the field of aeroelasticity.

It will also be useful as a reference source on the fundamentals of the subject for practitioners. In this third edition, several chapters have been revised and three new chapters added.

This book includes the use of simplified mathematical models to demonstrate key aeroelastic and loads phenomena including flutter, divergence, control effectiveness and the response and loads resulting from flight / ground manoeuvres and ...

In particular, an understanding of these disciplines is essential to the design of aircraft and space vehicles. This text provides an introduction to structural dynamics and aeroelasticity, with an emphasis on conventional aircraft.
