Aircraft Structures for Engineering Students Summary

Aircraft Structures for Engineering Students by T.H.G. Megson (Professor Emeritus, Department of Civil Engineering, Leeds University, UK)

Aircraft Structures for Engineering Students is the leading self contained aircraft structures course text. It covers all fundamental subjects, including elasticity, structural analysis, airworthiness and aeroelasticity. Now in its fourth edition, the author has revised and updated the text throughout and added new case study and worked example material to make the text even more accessible.

Aircraft Structures for Engineering Students Reviews

This is an excellent book and should find a place on the shelf of any student or practising engineer involved in aircraft structural analysis. I can recommend it to the aeronautical community without reservation - The Aeronautical Journal, October 2001 As an introduction to the problems encountered in the structural design of modern aircraft, Megson's book can be recommended to both students and those engaged in structural analysis aerospace design offices. - Aerospace
