Introductory Aerodynamics and Hydrodynamics of Wings and Bodies: A Software-Based Approach (Aiaa Education Series)

This textbook and its six supporting computer programs provide theoretical modelling of the aerodynamic characteristics of wings and bodies at low Mach numbers. The approach presented helps engineering students improve problem-solving skills by discerning the necessary steps associated with solving analytical problems. The book also presents a justification and rationale for validating end results that leave the student with an understanding of the answer and allow them to determine the effects of modifying parameters and geometry.
