Mathematical Modelling of Aerospace Dynamic Systems with Practical Applications provides mathematical models for several aerospace dynamic systems: aircraft, rotorcraft, missiles, unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), mini air vehicles (MAVs), autonomous underwater vehicles (AUWVs), and satellite-coordinate systems.Presenting the use of mathematical models for analysis, prediction, and control of these systems, this book discusses numerous applications in aircraft/helicopter parameter estimation, guidance and navigation of these vehicles, underwater object search, aerial terrain mapping, and satellite orbit determination. It explains path planning with obstacle avoidance, object occlusion detection and tracking, and multisensory target tracking and sensor data fusion.This book is intended for senior undergraduate mechanical and aerospace engineering students taking courses in aerospace systems and dynamics, flight dynamics and control, and dynamical systems and estimation.Instructors will be able to utilize a Solutions Manual and Figure Slides for their course.

Jitendra R. Raol received his B.E. and M.E. degrees in electrical engineering from M.S. University (MSU) of Baroda, Vadodara, in 1971 and 1973, respectively, and a Ph.D. (in electrical & computer engineering) from McMaster University, Hamilton, Canada, in 1986. He joined the National Aeronautical Laboratory (NAL) in 1975. At CSIR-NAL, he was involved in the activities on human pilot modeling in fix- and motion-based research flight simulators. He re-joined NAL in 1986 and retired in July 2007 as Scientist-G (and Head of Flight Mechanics and Control division at CSIR-NAL). He was a Fellow of the IEE/IET (United Kingdom) and a senior member of the IEEE (United States). He is a life-fellow of the Aeronautical Society of India and a life member of the Systems Society of India. He has published nearly 160 research papers and written several books and numerous technical reports. He has guest-edited two special issues of Sadhana and two special issues of the Defense Science Journal (New Delhi, India). He has served as a member/chairman of numerous advisory-, technical project review-, and doctoral examination committees. Under his technical guidance, eleven doctoral and eight master research scholars have had received their degrees successfully.V.P.S. Naidu obtained his M.Eng. in medical electronics from Anna University, Chennai, and PhD from University of Mysore, Mysore. Since 2001, he has been working as a scientist at CSIR-NAL in the area of multisensory data fusion and target tracking. He is a fellow of the Institution of Engineers (India), Chartered Engineer (India), fellow of the Institution of Electronics and Telecommunication Engineering (IETE, India), CEng (IETE), fellow of Aeronautical Society of India (AeSI), and FCET. He is also a Professor in the Academy of Scientific & Innovative Research (AcSIR-India). His areas of research are data fusion, mathematical modelling, state estimation, image fusion and enhanced vision systems for civilian aircraft.
