Aircraft Structures for Engineering Students (Aerospace Engineering)
Description:
Product Description
Aircraft Structures for Engineering Students, Seventh Edition, is the leading self-contained aircraft structures course text suitable for one or more semesters. It covers all fundamental subjects, including elasticity, structural analysis, airworthiness and aeroelasticity. Now in its seventh edition, the author has continued to expand the book’s coverage of analysis and design of composite materials for use in aircraft and has added more real-world and design-based examples, along with new end-of-chapter problems of varying complexity.
Review
For nearly 50 years, the leading self-contained aircraft structures course text, kept more current and updated than any other text
