Lecture notes for the AGARD Fluid Dynamics Panel Special Course on 'Engineering Methods in Aerodynamic Analysis and Design of Aircraft' have been assembled in this report. Proven engineering methods used during conceptual and preliminary design and development of new aircraft concepts are presented. These methods focus on simple computational procedures for conceptual and preliminary design, low-level analysis computer codes, and experimental techniques for aircraft performance predictions. The course was aimed at helping train young engineers to appreciate and work with simple engineering tools to enhance the art of cost-effective preliminary design of new aircraft. The AGARD Fluid Dynamics Panel Special Course-for which this material was prepared-was held 6th-10th May 1991 at the Middle East Technical University, Ankara, Turkey; 13th-17th May at the von Karman Institute for Fluid Dynamics, Rhode-St-Genese, Belgium; and 20th-24th May at the Universitad Politecnica de Madrid, ETSI Aeronauticos, Madrid, Spain. This course was developed and conducted under the combined sponsorship of the AGARD Fluid Dynamics Panel, the AGARD Consultant and Exchange Programme, and the von Karman Institute for Fluid Dynamics.

Contains the lecture notes prepared for a Special Course on Fluid Dynamics Research on Supersonic Aircraft organized by the RTO Applied Vehicle Technology Panel (AVT). The Course was held at the von Kármán Institute for Fluid Dynamics (VKI) Institute, Rhode-Saint-Genèse, Belgium 25-29 May 1998. The following topics were covered: History & Economics of Supersonic Transports, Supersonic Aerodynamics, Sonic Boom Theory and Minimization, Multi-Point Design Challenges, Vortex Plume Interactions, Propulsion System Design. Presentations on the major world wide supersonic transport programs were also included. The material assembled in this publication was prepared under the combined sponsorship of the RTO Applied Vehicle Technology Panel, the Consultant and Exchange Program of RTO, and the von Kármán Institute (VKI) for Fluid Dynamics.
