书目名称 | What Makes Airplanes Fly? | 副标题 | History, Science, an | 编辑 | Peter P. Wegener | 视频video | | 图书封面 |  | 描述 | Developed for humanities students at Yale and intended for the general reader interested in flight, this book is about aerodynamics in the broadest sense. To put the science into its social context, the author describes (with many illustrations) the history of human attempts to fly and discusses the outlook for future developments, as well as the social impact of commercial aviation. Although only elementary mathematics is used, the underlying science is discussed rigorously, but clearly, and with an emphasis on the visualizable aspects. Thus readers whose background is not in physics will deepen their knowledge of physics, gain an understanding of what keeps the huge airliners up, and appreciate some of the details of the exciting recent developments in technology. | 出版日期 | Book 19911st edition | 关键词 | aerodynamics; airplane; control; development; dynamic lift; dynamics; illustration; mathematics; physics; tur | 版次 | 1 | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-1-4684-0403-6 | isbn_ebook | 978-1-4684-0403-6 | copyright | Springer-Verlag New York Inc. 1991 |
