| Course Objectives | Flight mechanics is the application of Newton’s laws to the study of vehicle trajectories (performance), stability, and aerodynamic control. Flight mechanics is a discipline. As such, it has equations of motion, acceptable approximations, and solution techniques for the approximate equations of motion. We will focus on both the trajectory analysis and stability and aerodynamic control issues. The trajectory analysis is used to derive formulas and/or algorithms for computing the distance, time, and fuel along each mission leg. Stability and aerodynamic control contains static and dynamic stability and control. The aim of course is to provide fundamental principles of trajectory analysis and stability/control of an aircraft, and to intensify the knowledge by means of weakly homeworks. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
