Design engineers can jump off from the point of given parameters and requirements – required performance, payloads and other factors.  \u003cp\u003eThis is the first book for the aeronautical designer devoted to guiding the reader through this highly effective conceptual design synthesis process. This forms the procedure for the initial stage of the aircraft design process – the interpretation of a requirement into the preliminary layout. A logical design sequence is developed utilizing original modules to represent propulsion, lift, drag, mass, and performance. \u003ci\u003eAircraft Conceptual Design Synthesis\u003c\/i\u003e includes a disk of spreadsheets that provides core data. Unlike existing approaches, the design synthesis method can be applied to novel aircraft concepts.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eCONTENTS INCLUDE\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eThe design process\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eAircraft configuration\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eFlight regime and powerplant considerations\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eFuselage layout\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eConfiguration of the wing\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eBasic lift, drag and mass representations\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003ePerformance estimation\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eParametric analysis and optimisation\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eAnalysis of concept design\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003e“This is an important landmark book and in my view will become a standard by which others will be compared”\u003c\/i\u003e – Dr E C P Ransom, Kingston University, UK\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003eNotation.  \u003cp\u003ePreface.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eChapter 1.
