Advanced Aircraft Flight Performance

In recent years there has been a renaissance in the field of aircraft flight performance with a number of developments centering mostly on environmental performance, sustainability, digitization, large data sets, integration with flight monitoring systems, and novel power plants – just to name a few. The aviation industry is now acutely aware of the climate emergency, and aircraft performance is now intrinsically linked to emissions.
The availability of increasingly large amounts of digital data from on-board computers (flight data recorder, FADEC), data transmission to ground stations, internet streaming of flight data, and various web applications have created a wealth of performance data that would have been inconceivable just a few years ago. With advances in these two directions, as well as new engine technology (high by-pass turbofan engines, counter-rotating open rotors), this revised and updated second edition of Advanced Aircraft Flight Performance features significant updates throughout, along with three new chapters. About one-third of the material now deals with environmental performance.
Professor Antonio Filippone teaches aerospace engineering at the University of Manchester. His research background is on aerodynamic systems for both ground and airborne vehicles. Specifically, he is interested in the development of new high-fidelity methods for the analysis, optimization, and design of aerospace systems and their application to real-life cases. His current interests are in four general areas: 1. aero-acoustics (with emphasis on aircraft noise and noise propagation); 2. aero-mechanics of fixed- and rotary-wing vehicles (commercial airplanes and rotorcraft systems), 3. environmental analysis (exhaust emissions, acoustic emissions, high-altitude effects of flight); 4. multi-disciplinary applications in simulation engineering. His strategic interests are aligned with the themes of transport, energy, and environment. Past experience includes research in industrial flows, wind energy generation, power systems, multi-phase flows, wind tunnel research (mostly aerodynamics/acoustics) and other laboratory measurements, stochastic optimization, and more. Professor Filippone is the author of textbooks on aircraft and rotorcraft flight performance. He is a Fellow of the Royal Aeronautical Society, a Fellow of the Institute of Mechanical Engineers, and a Chartered Engineer.
