Introduction to Aerospace Engineering I

This first part of the course Introduction to Aerospace Engineering presents an overall picture of the aeronautics domain. This overview involves a number of different perspectives on the aerospace domain, and shows some basic principles of the most important concepts for flight. Then a part on Flight Performance is given, with the equations of motion and endurance, range, envelope, etc. Finally an introduction is given to to the underlying aerodynanmics, both incompressible flow (subsonic) as well as compressible flow(trans- and supersonic).
