SUMMARY

The discussion centers on finding an accessible aerodynamics book suitable for engineering students with limited math and physics knowledge. Participants recommend "Flight Without Formula" by Phillipet, "Aerodynamika" by A.M. Mhitariyan, and "Fundamentals of Aerodynamics" by J.D. Anderson, with Anderson's book being highlighted as a standard reference in the field. The user expresses a foundational understanding of aerodynamics concepts, such as Bernoulli's principle, and seeks further guidance on the suggested texts.

PREREQUISITES
  • Basic understanding of aerodynamics principles, such as Bernoulli's principle.
  • Familiarity with aircraft design concepts.
  • Interest in mechanical engineering and aircraft technology.
  • No advanced math or physics knowledge required.
NEXT STEPS
  • Research "Flight Without Formula" by Phillipet for beginner-friendly aerodynamics insights.
  • Explore "Aerodynamika" by A.M. Mhitariyan for additional perspectives on aerodynamics.
  • Study "Fundamentals of Aerodynamics" by J.D. Anderson to gain a comprehensive understanding of the subject.
  • Investigate supplementary resources on basic aerodynamics principles to reinforce foundational knowledge.
USEFUL FOR

This discussion is beneficial for mechanical engineering students, aspiring aerospace engineers, and anyone seeking to understand aerodynamics without a strong background in math or physics.

Hello everyone. Firstly, I have to say that I'm studying mechanical engineering but I was at Preperation Class last year. I'm going to begin my engineering education this year. (hence, I don't have any high level math or physics informations) I am interested with Aircrafts. I've just read "Aircraft Design" (Daniel P. Raymer). consequently, I need a Aerodynamic book. I have a infrastructure about Aerodynamic and aircrafts. I know some things ( Principle of Bernouille, flows etc.) You should consider this situation when you suggesting. Thank you.

Edit: Someone has suggested this "FLIGHT WITHOUT FORMULA (By Phillipet)" , " A.M Mhitariyan- Aerodynamika" , "J.D Anderson Fundamentals of Aerodynamic" [If you have any information about these books, Please tell me how are these?" ] THANK YOU AGAIN!

Anderson is a standard. If the same person who recommended Anderson also recommended the other (I'm not familiar with it), I would take that advice very seriously.
