This book introduces aircraft to students in any aviation-related track of study, whether they are future mechanics/technicians, pilots, or aviation managers. High school programs will also find this book useful for teaching the basics about aircraft.Readers get an excellent overview of aircraft structures and systems. And a substantial portion of the book is devoted to reciprocating and turbine powerplants and the systems that support them. Similar books offered in the past are out of print, out of date, and some ignore turbine engines. Throughout, this book explains the newest technologies and the tried-and-true ones that are still used. It is easy to understand, heavily illustrated, and has many photographs-all to enhance learning.Topics include aircraft structures; flight controls and flaps; electrical systems; hydraulic systems; landing gear, wheels, tires, and brakes; fuel systems; cabin atmosphere; instrument systems; ice, rain, smoke, and fire protection systems; aircraft powerplants overview; reciprocating engines; reciprocating engine systems; turbine engines and systems; and aircraft maintenance and documentation

As with the first edition, this textbook provides a clear introduction to the fundamental theory of structural analysis as applied to vehicular structures such as aircraft, spacecraft, automobiles and ships. The emphasis is on the application of fundamental concepts of structural analysis that are employed in everyday engineering practice. All approximations are accompanied by a full explanation of their validity. In this new edition, more topics, figures, examples and exercises have been added. There is also a greater emphasis on the finite element method of analysis. Clarity remains the hallmark of this text and it employs three strategies to achieve clarity of presentation: essential introductory topics are covered, all approximations are fully explained and many important concepts are repeated.

Introduction to Aircraft Structural Analysis is an essential resource for learning aircraft structural analysis. Based on the author's best-selling book Aircraft Structures for Engineering Students, this brief text introduces the reader to the basics of structural analysis as applied to aircraft structures. Coverage of elasticity, energy methods and virtual work sets the stage for discussions of airworthiness/airframe loads and stress analysis of aircraft components. Numerous worked examples, illustrations, and sample problems show how to apply the concepts to realistic situations. The book covers the core concepts in about 200 fewer pages by removing some optional topics like structural vibrations and aero elasticity. It consists of 23 chapters covering a variety of topics from basic elasticity to torsion of solid sections; energy methods; matrix methods; bending of thin plates; structural components of aircraft; airworthiness; airframe loads; bending of open, closed, and thin walled beams; combined open and closed section beams; wing spars and box beams; and fuselage frames and wing ribs. This book will appeal to undergraduate and postgraduate students of aerospace and aeronautical engineering, as well as professional development and training courses. Based on the author's best-selling text Aircraft Structures for Engineering Students, this Intro version covers the core concepts in about 200 fewer pages by removing some optional topics like structural vibrations and aeroelasticity Systematic step by step procedures in the worked examples Self-contained, with complete derivations for key equations
