Aerodynamics for Engineering Students, 5th Edition
E. L. Houghton
P. W. Carpenter
ISBN: 978-0-7506-5111-0
This well-established text is now in its fifth edition and continues to be the leading complete course on aerodynamics.
A key strength of the book is its accessible, straightforward approach and excellent practical examples and applications throughout that clarify and reinforce topics for students.
Theory is developed logically within each chapter with all notation, symbols and units well defined.
The book recognises the extensive use of computational techniques in contemporary aeronautical design. However, it can be used as a stand-alone text, reflecting the needs of many courses in the field for a thorough grounding in the underlying principles of the subject. Experience in computational techniques is not required for a complete understanding of the aerodynamics in this book... [more]
