Multidisciplinary Design of Flexible Aircraft

open access: yes, 2008
The increasing use of fiber composite materials in the design of aircraft structures and the advent of easily available fast personal computers, have forced the aircraft design engineers to adopt complex mathematical models, which usually adress the trio of flight mechanics, aereoalsticity and controls in one simulation.
