About this title

Synopsis:

Both student and teacher can use this course to interact with aircraft and missile simulations, proceeding from simple ballistic trajectories to controlled and guided flight. Assuming familiarity with aerospace systems, the 13 training units teach flight mechanics, aerodynamics, propulsion, seekers, guidance and control, with illustrations chosen from the provided simulations. You follow in the footsteps of the expert, building, analyzing, and verifying the simulation at every step until its completion. This tutorial is the second of three related courses published in the AIAA Self-Study Series. It is preceded by Building Aerospace Simulations in C++, Third Edition and is followed by Advanced Six Degrees of Freedom Aerospace Simulation and Analysis in C++, Second Edition. All three complement Peter Zipfel's textbook Modeling and Simulation of Aerospace Vehicle Dynamics, Third Edition published in the AIAA Education Series. To teach yourself the fundamentals of six- degrees-of-freedom simulations, all you need is this course, the textbook, the Visual C++ compiler (free Express version from Microsoft) and a Windows based PC (32 or 64 bit).You can download the complimentary CADAC4 which contains CADAC Studio for plotting. This second edition has been upgraded to the latest CADAC++ framework and Microsoft C++ compiler. All PowerPoint slides are now in PDF format. You will be submerged into a total learning experience with 509 training charts. A total of 145 hands-on exercises will help you explore the computer models of aircraft and missile components and check your progress against the provided solutions. You have several choices. (1) Familiarize yourself with the CADAC++ simulations by just following the primer; (2) experiment with the missile; (3) work with the aircraft; or best of all, (4) explore all three options.
