內容簡介
The book is connected with the history of the aviation development, some bases for the aerodynamic, strength analysis, airworthiness and manufacturing of civil aircraft. Also, there is the base information about typical structural materials. And also, obligatorily, there are some topics about designing process, specifics of major structural members and systems of civil airplanes. The emphasis is put on the connection among airworthiness requirements, parameters of environment in which an aircraft operates, and structure of an airplane.
This book will be useful for students with majors: civil aviation engineers, designing, manufacturing, strength analysis and airworthiness of aircraft.
