What is it about?
Modeling and Simulation of Aerospace Vehicle Dynamics, Third Edition unifies all aspects of flight n dynamics for the efficient development of aerospace vehicle simulations. It provides the reader with a complete set of tools to build, program, and execute simulations. Unlike other books, it uses tensors for modeling flight dynamics in a form invariant under coordinate transformations. For implementation, the tensors are converted into matrices, resulting in compact computer code.

Why is it important?
Based on Tensor Flight Dynamics it is indispensable for any aerospace engineer who deals with simulations.
Perspectives
I first published the book in 2000, based on my lectures at the University of Florida. Now in its third edition It has been a great success with students and practicing engineers.
