Manned Spacecraft Design Principles presents readers with a brief,
to-the-point primer that includes a detailed introduction to the
information required at the preliminary design stage of a manned
space transportation system. In the process of developing the
preliminary design, the book covers content not often discussed in
a standard aerospace curriculum, including atmospheric entry
dynamics, space launch dynamics, hypersonic flow fields, hypersonic
heat transfer, and skin friction, along with the economic aspects
of space flight. Key concepts relating to human factors and crew
support systems are also included, providing users with a
comprehensive guide on how to make informed choices from an array
of competing options. The text can be used in conjunction with
Pasquale Sforza's, Commercial Aircraft Design Principles to form a
complete course in Aircraft/Spacecraft Design.
