Description
Summary:ESDU Aerospace collection provides full text of validated engineering methods, data, principles, worked examples, programs, and related equations for aerospace engineering.
Provides validated engineering methods, data, principles, worked examples, programs and related equations on over 1,200 specific aerospace, process, structural and mechanical engineering topics. ESDU engineers, guided by committees of international experts, gather and carefully analyse information from a variety of academic, industry and hard-to-obtain private sources. They develop and validate equations, charts and graphs, guidance notes, and computer programsProvides engineering analysis and design information. The resulting Design Guides cover such topics as the Aerodynamics of controls, flaps and leading-edge devices; Heat pipe design and performance prediction; Methods of calculating the pressure distribution and loading on aerofoils and wings in high subsonic flow; Principles and data for designing against metal fatigue; Strength analysis of lightweight structures such as those used in aerospace.
