Load analysis is an indispensable preliminary element of aircraft structural design, defining aerodynamic, inertial, and operational loads that the airframe must be equipped to react to. Snorri Gudmundsson (author of General Aviation Aircraft Design) sets out to provide a clear and practical study of load analysis for general aviation aircraft-the first book on the market to do so. From explaining basic concepts like aerodynamic and inertial loads to covering new practical methods for calculation (including numerical and experimental analyses), General Aviation Load Analysis brings a level of detail benefiting those studying and working in general aviation aircraft structural design. The only book on the market that focuses exclusively on load for GA aircraftBalances basic concepts of load estimation and practical methods of load calculationAddresses load estimation using both numerical and experimental methods INDICE: 1.
