By taking a wider viewpoint, \u003ci\u003ePowered Flight - The Engineering of Aerospace Propulsion\u003c\/i\u003e aims to provide a broader context, allowing observations and comparisons to be made across systems that are overlooked by focusing on a single aspect alone. The physics and history of aerospace propulsion are built on step-by-step, coupled with the development of an appreciation for the mathematics involved in the science and engineering of propulsion. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCombining the author’s experience as a researcher, an industry professional and a lecturer in graduate and undergraduate aerospace engineering, \u003ci\u003ePowered Flight - The Engineering of Aerospace Propulsion\u003c\/i\u003e covers its subject matter both theoretically and with an awareness of the practicalities of the industry. To ensure that the content is clear, representative but also interesting the text is complimented by a range of relevant graphs and photographs  including  representative engineering, in addition to several propeller performance charts. These items provide excellent reference and support materials for graduate and undergraduate projects and exercises.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eStudents in the field of aerospace engineering will find that \u003ci\u003ePowered Flight - The Engineering of Aerospace Propulsion\u003c\/i\u003e supports their studies from the introductory stage and throughout more intensive follow-on studies. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Springer\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 2014-02-22\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Paperback\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9781447159476\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-1-4471-2485-6\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 235cm x155cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 526\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer London","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47674712162444,"sku":"9781447159476","price":49.49,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9781447159476.jpg?v=1776538496","url":"https:\/\/fh90cf-fv.myshopify.com\/products\/9781447159476","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
