About the Book

This is an advanced text for practising aerospace, structural, and mechanical engineers as well as graduate engineering students. The emphasis is on the problems fixed-wing aircraft experience in flight. It includes discussions of the history of aeroelasticity, the fundamentals of steady and unsteady aerodynamics as well as structural deflection and vibration theory. Issues of quasi-steady manoeuvring flight and flutter stability are considered along with transient response to landing and gust loads and random response to atmospheric turbulence and runway roughness. The final chapters of the book cover aeroservoelasticity wing movement and flight control matters; aerothermoelasticity wing movement and the effects of temperature and thermal stresses; and, aeroelastic design by optimisation based on the author's lifetime of work as a consulting aeronautical engineer and teacher in the field of aeroelasticity. The alphabetical reference list is comprehensive. Several appendices review relevant prerequisite material and historical topics.

About the Author :
WILLIAM P. RODDEN is a consulting aeronautical engineer widely known for his archive and industrial publications and teaching of all aspects of aeroelasticity. The contents of this book reflect a lifetime of experience in all theoretical and computational aspects of aeroelasticity. After graduation from the University of California, Berkeley, with a Masters Degree, Rodden began his career as a stress analyst and an aerodynamic stability and control analyst in the Southern California aerospace industry. He worked at Northrop and Douglas Aircraft companies on military aircraft and eventually received his Ph.D. on a Douglas scholarship from UCLA, specializing in matters of flutter. Subsequently, he taught at UCLA and the University of Southern California. In 1965, Dr. Rodden opened his consulting practice. He notes that his purpose was to be independent, not to become richand we succeeded on both counts. As a consultant, he worked on such projects as the DC-10, F-20, F-23, and the B-2 stealth bomber. In addition, he earned his private pilots license, testified as an expert witness in several trials on airframe in-flight problems, and continued his lifelong interests in sports. Dr. Rodden formally retired in 1999 to begin work on this book. He is a Fellow of the American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronuatics.

Review :
The wait for Theoretical and Computational Aeroelasticity has been worthwhile. The book is going to be of particular interest to the practising aeroelastician who will gain a great deal from the numerous insights and historical notes that thread the whole book together. - J. E. Cooper CEng, FRAeS, The Aeronautical Journal September 2012
