Description:
|
The purpose of this book is to develop an understanding of the main engineering problems involved in spaceflight. Mathematics has not been avoided, and a graduate level is necessary to follow the derivations. The book gives insight into the engineering of rocket engines, launch vehicles, flight mechanics, system optimization and mission design: it can be recommended to students in advanced lessons as well as to all spacecraft system engineers.
