Description
In his latest book, Missile Design Guide, Eugene Fleeman presents a comprehensive compilation of the missile design process pulling from his 50+ years of experience in the design and development of missile systems. The handbook consists of full color figures with self-standing graphs, tables, charts, and diagrams. It is aimed toward the needs of missile engineers, system engineers, system analysts, program managers, aerospace engineering students, and professors. Readers have a quick reference for missile design, missile technologies, launch platform integration, targeting, fire control integration, missile system measures of merit, and the missile system development process.
Topics Discussed
Key drivers in the missile design, development, and system engineering process
Critical tradeoffs, methods, and technologies in aerodynamic, propulsion, structure, seeker, warhead, fuzing, and subsystems sizing to meet flight performance and other requirements
Launch platform and fire control system integration
Robustness, lethality, guidance, navigation and control, accuracy, observables, survivability, safety, reliability, and cost considerations
Missile sizing examples
Missile system and missile technology development process
Special Features
Simple, closed-form, physics-based analytical expressions that provide insight into primary driving parameters
Example calculations of rocket-powered, ramjet-powered, and turbojet powered missiles as well as guided bombs
Examples of the characteristics of current missiles
Enabling subsystems and technologies of missiles, and the state of the art of missiles
Detailed appendices, including homework problems/classroom exercises and quizzes.
Access to the web site for this book - which includes over 100 missile videos, missile configuration design software, missile design studies by Georgia Tech graduate students, and a STEM project for students.
