Books
-
Klein, V. and Morelli, E.A.: Aircraft System Identification -
Theory and Practice. AIAA Education Series (Reston), 2006.
-
This book provides a comprehensive overview of both the
theoretical underpinnings and the practical application of
aircraft modeling based on experimental data -- also known
as aircraft system identification. Much of the material
presented comes from the authors' own extensive research
and teaching activities at the NASA Langley Research
Center and is based on real world applications of system
identification to aircraft. The book uses actual flight
test and wind tunnel data for case studies and examples,
and is a valuable resource for researchers and practicing
engineers, as well as a textbook for postgraduate and
senior-level courses.
