SPRINGER Atmospheric And Space Flight Dynamics: Modeling And Simulation With Matlab® And Simulink® by TEWARI ASHISH
Uniquely bridges the gap between aircraft and spacecraft flight dynamics through a unified approach demonstrating that the two disciplines evolve logically from the same set of physical principles Introduces a broad range of modern topics in an accessible yet mathematically rigorous presentation Many numerical examples and simulations utilizing MATLAB and Simulink fully integrated throughout the work Realistic and instructive simulations seldom found in books on the same topic allow users to design aircraft missiles launch vehicles re-entry vehicles and spacecraft Software is used as an instructional hands-on tool moving away from the cook book approach found elsewhere Modern aerospace vehicles such as the space shuttle other launch vehicles and long-range ballistic missiles do not discriminate between atmospheric and space flight. Most texts on flight dynamics however make this artificial distinction and therefore do not simultaneously cover aircraft and spacecraft. Bridging this gap in the literature Atmospheric and Space Flight Dynamics is a unified presentation demonstrating that the two disciplines have actually evolved from the same set of physical principles.
