In-depth reference on fixed wing aircraft electrical and mechanical systems, covering electronics, hydraulics, and other essential components Aircraft Systems delivers comprehensive material on the design and development of fixed wing aircraft electrical and mechanical systems, providing broad coverage of aircraft systems including electronics, hydraulics, pneumatics, flight control actuation, and landing gear. The book features many practical examples of existing commercial and military aircraft. Academic design studies and methods are presented, along with information on technical and mathematical methods of design. The book also features design guides for each system, including equations where appropriate to size sub-systems and major components, and discusses environmental concerns. Topics discussed in Aircraft Systems include: Aircraft systems design philosophy and safety, covering systems design approaches, safety assessments, requirement captures, and component reliabilitySecondary power sources including main engines, auxiliary and ground power units, batteries, ram air turbines, and fuel cellsHydraulic system components, covering hydraulic fluids, pumps, and piping, reservoirs, filters, accumulators, and relief valvesAircraft icing and rain protection, covering ice protection systems such as electro-impulse de-icing and chemical ice protection systems Aircraft Systems is an essential resource for undergraduate and postgraduate students studying the design of fixed wing aircraft systems. The book is also valuable to professionals in aerospace engineering due to its broad view of aircraft systems development and integration.

Craig Lawson, PhD, is Professor of Aircraft Design at Cranfield University, UK. He is a Chartered Engineer, Fellow of the Royal Aeronautical Society, and Fellow of the UK Higher Education Academy. He is an expert in aircraft design focusing on assessment of the impact of novel systems on aircraft design, performance, and assembly. He manages industry and government funded research projects, supervises doctoral candidates, and teaches aircraft conceptual, preliminary, and detailed design to postgraduate students.

David Judt is the Head of Airworthiness at Aircraft Completion Engineering, France. He is a Member of the Royal Aeronautical Society and Fellow of the UK Higher Education Academy. Educated at Glasgow University and Cranfield University, he was Senior Lecturer and Course Director for the Aerospace Vehicle Design MSc. program, teaching and researching in the airframe systems field.
