This book offers a reinterpretation of Austen's later novels by exploring their interactions with the fiction of the 1810s. Building on recent bibliographic research into the novel, this study situates Austen in the literary marketplace and offers new insights into the nature of her 'innovation', which arises from her sensitivity to the genre.

The Encyclopedia of Aerospace Engineering represents a major publishing initiative to establish a high quality, carefully coordinated reference work that will enhance education, training and research in this complex and demanding field. 
Coverage ranges from core disciplines such as electrical and electronic engineering, mechanical engineering and physics, to advanced materials, digital technology and environmental science, all of which have an ever-increasing, interactive role in modern air and spacecraft design. The Encyclopedia provides an unparalleled exposition of essential scientific concepts and their application to current engineering practice, laying a foundation for further research and study in specialist publications. Extensive and up-to-date cross-referencing enhance the value of this monumental work and will ensure its unique contribution to the engineering literature. The Encyclopedia will be available in print or online. The Encyclopedia is structured in the following themed volumes: 1: Fluid Dynamics and Aerothermodynamics 2: Propulsion and Power 3: Structural Technology 4: Materials Technology 5: Dynamics and Control 6: Environmental Impact and Manufacturing 7: Vehicle Design 8: System Engineering 9: Index

Hankey addresses the kinetic theory of gases and the prediction of vehicle trajectories during re-entry, including a description of the Earth's atmosphere. He discusses the fundamentals of hypersonic aerodynamics as they are used in estimating the aerodynamic characteristics of re-entry configurations, re-entry heat transfer for both lifting (space shuttle) and ballistic (Apollo) configurations, thermal protection systems, and the application of high-temperature materials in design.

To stay on the forefront of aerospace design, you need state-of-the-art knowledge on the computational power now in use. Applied Computational Aerodynamics goes beyond the theories to focus on real world applications. 
Richly illustrated chapters feature geometric types of problems ranging from the classic airfoil problem to the complexity of complete aircraft such as the 737, 7J7, the F-16, and the Space Shuttle launch configuration. Plus, applications for components are also detailed, including wings, high-lift systems, propulsion system components, and rotors. 
Featuring a complete overview of all of the latest design developments and studies, with hundreds of illustrations (more than 60 in full color) spanning more than 900 pages, this is truly an impressive resource.

This book presents, for the first time, a comprehensive and up-to-date treatment of gun muzzle blast and flash. It describes the gas dynamics involved, modern propulsion systems, flow development, chemical kinetics, and reaction networks of flash suppression additives as well as historical work. In addition, the text presents data to support a revolutionary viewpoint of secondary flash ignition and suppression. 
The book is written for practitioners and novices in the flash suppression field: engineers, scientists, researchers, ballisticians, propellant designers, and those involved in signature detection or suppression.
