Product Overview
Modeling and Simulation of Aerospace Vehicle Dynamics, Third Edition unifies all aspects of flight dynamics for the efficient development of aerospace vehicle simulations. It provides the reader with a complete set of tools to build, program, and execute simulations. Unlike other books, it uses tensors for modeling flight dynamics in a form invariant under coordinate transformations. For implementation, the tensors are converted into matrices, resulting in compact computer code. This book also serves as an anchor for three self-study courses which are based on M&S courses in C++ previously taught at the University of Florida. They are Building Aerospace Simulations in C++; Fundamentals of Six Degrees of Freedom Aerospace Simulation and Analysis in C++; and Advanced Six Degrees of Freedom Aerospace Simulation and Analysis in C++.
