DOWNLOAD EBOOK →In this book, the author introduces the concept of unsteady aerodynamics and its underlying principles. He provides the readers with a comprehensive review of the fundamental physics of free and forced unsteadiness, the terminology and basic equations of aerodynamics ranging from incompressible flow to hypersonics. The book also covers modern topics related to the developments made in recent years, especially in relation to wing flapping for propulsion. The book is written for graduate and senior year undergraduate students in aerodynamics and also serves as a reference for experienced researchers. Each chapter includes ample examples, questions, problems and relevant references. The treatment of these modern topics has been completely revised end expanded for the new edition. It now includes new numerical examples, a section on the ground effect, and state-space representation.

The Air Force became concerned about the NAI's possible consequences on Air Force programs and budget if NAI program decisions differed from Air Force priorities. To examine this issue, it asked the NRC for an independent review of the NAI. This report presents the results of that assessment. It focuses on three questions asked by the Air Force: is NAI technically feasible in the time frame laid out; is it financially feasible over that period; and is it operationally relevant.

DOWNLOAD EBOOK →The symposium dealt with Gas Turbine Engine Combustion, Emissions and Alternative Fuels. Forty-six papers and a Keynote Address elucidated the role of the combustion process as a crucial factor of engine performance and operability under various conditions including non-standard, new fuels and environmental effects of civil and military interest. There were 12 Sessions covering the following topics (some in 2 sessions): (1) Gas Turbines in Land, Sea and Air Applications; (2) Low-Emission Combustors; (3) Combustion Modelling; (4) Optical Measurements; (5) Emissions; (6) Combustor Design; (7) Ignition Processes; (8) Active Combustion Control; and (9) Alternative Fuels.
