All engineers must excel at math and science, especially math subjects like algebra, geometry calculus, complex numbers, differential equations and more. Science subjects include physics, chemistry, electrical
Vinicius - I believe Schultz's booklet is very good, but it was written to emphasize the importance of perforated cover sheets on acoustic linings without much analysis. He discusses resonant and absorptive
Well Adam, that sounds simple, but there are many answers to your question because lift depends on many factors such that you could get the same lift from different wings with different spans. More specifically
Daniel - You remind me of me. At one point in my youth I was determined to give up on aeronautics (we were testing supersonic transports at the time, which I detested) for biology, which would have been
