Hays|One of Torenbeek's earlier books, "Synthesis of Subsonic Airplane Design", published in 1982, is an essential reference book for designers of transport-category subsonic aircraft (i.e., airliners). An update would have been useful, but this is not it. This book concentrates more on design methodology a|||“Advanced Aircraft Design: Conceptual Design, Analysis and Optimization of Subsonic Civil Airplanes advances understanding of the initial optimization of civil airplanes and is a must-have reference for aerospace engineering students, applied researcher
Although the overall appearance of modern airliners has not changed a lot since the introduction of jetliners in the 1950s, their safety, efficiency and environmental friendliness have improved considerably. Main contributors to this have been gas turbine engine technology, advanced materials, computational aerodynamics, advanced structural analysis and on-board systems. Since aircraft design became a highly multidisciplinary activity, the development of multidiscipli...
