Aircraft System Identification: Theory & Practice

Aircraft System Identification: Theory & Practice(English) by Eugene A. Morell,Vladislav Klein.

Description

This book provides a comprehensive overview of both the theoretical underpinnings and the practical application of aircraft modeling based on experimental data – also known as aircraft system identification. Much of the material presented comes from the authors’ own extensive research and teaching activities at the NASA Langley Research Center, and is based on real-world applications of system identification to aircraft. The book uses actual flight-test and wind-tunnel data for case studies and examples, and is a valuable resource for researchers and practicing engineers, as well as a textbook for postgraduate and senior-level courses.
