520 |a Much-needed, fresh approach that brings a greater insight into the physical understanding of aerodynamics Based on the author's decades of industrial experience with Boeing, this book helps students and practicing engineers to gain a greater physical understanding of aerodynamics. Relying on clear physical arguments and examples, Mcleanprovides a much-needed, fresh approach to this sometimes contentious subject without shying away from addressing ""real"" aerodynamic situations as opposed to the oversimplified ones frequently used for mathematical convenience. Motivated by the belief.
