While the term—literally meaning "sailing the air"—originally referred solely to the science of operating the aircraft, it has since been expanded to include technology, business and other aspects related to aircraft. One of the significant parts in aeronautics is a branch of physical science called aerodynamics , which deals with the motion of air and the way it interacts with objects in motion, such as an aircraft. Aviation is a term sometimes used interchangeably with aeronautics, although "aeronautics" includes lighter-than-air craft such as airships , while "aviation" does not.

skip navigation What is Aeronautics? Dynamics of Flight Airplanes ... UEET Public Web Site What is Aeronautics? Definition Aeronautics is the study of the science of flight . Aeronautics is the method of designing an airplane or other flying machine. There are four basic areas that aeronautical engineers must understand in order to be able to design planes. To design a plane, engineers must understand all of these elements. Design Process Aerodynamics is the study of how air flows around the airplane. By studying the way air flows around the plane the engineers can define the shape of the plane. The wings, the tail, and the main body or fuselage of the plane all affect the way the air will move around the plane. Propulsion is the study of how to design an engine that will provide the thrust that is needed for a plane to take off and fly through the air. The engine provides the power for the airplane. The study of propulsion is what leads the the engineers determine the right kind of engine and the right amount of power that a plane will need Materials and Structures is the study of what materials are to be used on the plane and in the engine and how those materials make the plane strong enough to fly effectively. The choice of materials that are used to make the fuselage wings, tail and engine will affect the strength and stability of the plane. Many airplane materials are now made out of composites, materials that are stronger than most metals and are lightweight.

Jules Verne carries more than 7,500 pounds of equipment, supplies, water, fuel and gases for the station, and will remain at the station until August, for unloading and re-supplying of the orbiting laboratory. Subsequently it will be filled with station garbage and discards. Then it will be de-orbited for destruction on re-entry over the Pacific. (Image Credit: NASA) F-22's Possible Role as ASAT Weapon A recent report in Aviation Week suggests the F-22 could be armed with an anti-satellite (ASAT) missile in a few years if the military and the Missile Defense Agency decide to refine and further develop a new missile from Raytheon. A derivative of the Aim-120 AMRAAM, this new, air-launched, missile is called the NCADE, for Network-Centric Airborne Defense Element. While the AMRAAM derivative isn’t as large as the Standard Missile-3 that shot down an errant satellite earlier this year, if launched at Mach 0.85 at 30,000-40,000 feet, it becomes much more capable against objects at altitudes of 30 km (19 miles) or more.

Spotlights WELCOME John Dabiri , Assistant Professor of Aeronautics and Bioengineering, has won an ONR Young Investigator Award for work in "Optimal Propulsion Methodologies for Hybrid Screw-based, Bio-inspired Systems". The objectives of the Young Investigator Program are to attract to naval research outstanding new faculty members, to support their research, and to encourage their teaching and research careers. ONR announced 27 new awards for 2008. A National Nuclear Security Administration (NNSA) Center of Excellence will be established at Caltech, under the direction of Michael Ortiz , Dotty and Dick Hayman Professor of Aeronautics and Mechanical Engineering. This center, one of five new centers to be established, will develop not only the science and engineering models and software for large-scale simulations, but also methods associated with the emerging disciplines of verification and validation and uncertainty quantification. The goal of these emerging disciplines is to enable scientists to make precise statements about the degree of confidence they have in their simulation-based predictions. The center will be funded for $17 million over a five-year period. Read more...
