SUMMARY

This discussion focuses on the need for Russian-language resources in the fields of aerodynamics and aircraft design, particularly for mechanical engineering students. The user, a first-year student, seeks recommendations for books by renowned authors such as Tupolev and Ilyushin. Key suggestions include N.F. Krasnov's two-volume series on Aerodynamics, which covers essential topics such as fluid dynamics, shock wave theory, and aerodynamic characteristics in various flow conditions. The discussion highlights the importance of foundational knowledge in fluid mechanics for aspiring UAV designers.

PREREQUISITES
  • Basic understanding of mechanical engineering principles
  • Familiarity with fluid mechanics concepts
  • Knowledge of thermodynamics
  • Introduction to differential equations
NEXT STEPS
  • Research N.F. Krasnov's Aerodynamics, Volume I and II for in-depth fluid dynamics knowledge
  • Explore Landau and Lifshitz's "Course of Theoretical Physics," particularly Volume 6 on fluid dynamics
  • Study the works of Tupolev and Ilyushin for insights into aircraft design
  • Investigate additional Russian literature on aerodynamics and UAV design
USEFUL FOR

This discussion is beneficial for mechanical engineering students, particularly those focusing on UAV design and aerodynamics, as well as educators and researchers seeking Russian-language resources in these fields.

Hi guys. I need ur suggestion. Firstly, (I got to say that I'm new about this topic) I'm studying mechanical engineering and It's my first year. I've never learned about fluid mechanics or termodynamic or differantial equations before but I'm dealing with Aircrafts especially UAV. I've read Aircraft design (Daniel P. Raymer) and some other small sources and I've learned a lot. I deal to make model aircraft nowadays. It's okey.
Your suggestion is related with book. I'm looking some Russian Aerodynamic or aircraft design books. Tupolev, Ilyushin etc. Can you suggest a book for me? Thank you. (Just Russian)

Well, I'm not familiar with the engineering literature on fluid dynamics, but for a theoretical physicist the immediate association with "physics textbook" it's Landau and Lifshitz 10-volume "Course of Theoretical Physics", and the fluid dynamics book (vol. 6) is just marvelous (as are all volumes except vol. 4 on QED which is a bit outdated).

Thank you so much brosky :)
