While many available texts cover some aspect of simulation, this book is unique in that it brings all the tools required to write a flight simulation mathematical model together in one reference. A perfect reference guide, the book follows a logical build-up to a complete aircraft model. It begins with a discussion of the types of flight simulation that are possible. From there, chapters are dedicated to vectors, vector resolution, and the many axis systems used in helicopter analysis. A brief chapter on atmospheric ... Read More
While many available texts cover some aspect of simulation, this book is unique in that it brings all the tools required to write a flight simulation mathematical model together in one reference. A perfect reference guide, the book follows a logical build-up to a complete aircraft model. It begins with a discussion of the types of flight simulation that are possible. From there, chapters are dedicated to vectors, vector resolution, and the many axis systems used in helicopter analysis. A brief chapter on atmospheric modeling precedes a critical section devoted to the importance of establishing the distinction between inertial velocity, wash velocity, and aerodynamic velocity. After these chapters have built the foundation for aerodynamics and dynamics, the rotorcraft is modeled from simple components up to more complex systems with chapters dedicated to fuselage, wings, propellers, rotors, engines, drive systems, landing gear, controls, and aerodynamic coupling. The final chapters describe overall organization and informational flow, and methods to trim the aircraft to initial states. Read Less
