An expert and contemporary presentation of computational analysis and design tools for professionals studying or applying the principles of aerodynamics
In Aerodynamics: A Computational Introduction, a distinguished aerospace engineer and researcher Krzysztof Fidkowski delivers an up-to-date and authoritative reference text covering the essentials of aerodynamics. The book covers key topics, including basic fluid dynamics, potential flow, airfoil theory, boundary layers, wing theory, and compressible flow.
Fidkowski takes a computation-first approach to the subject matter, presenting aerodynamics in a way that is compatible with the way the subject is handled in contemporary businesses and research labs. Aerodynamics offers numerical demonstrations, codes, and theory comparisons that make important derivations and conclusions easier to understand and apply.
