The book features many practical examples of existing commercial and military aircraft. Academic design studies and methods are presented, along with information on technical and mathematical methods of design. The book also features design guides for each system, including equations where appropriate to size sub-systems and major components, and discusses environmental concerns. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eTopics discussed in \u003ci\u003eAircraft Systems\u003c\/i\u003e include:\u003c\/b\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cb\u003eAircraft systems design philosophy and safety, covering systems design approaches, safety assessments, requirement captures, and component reliability\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e\u003cb\u003eSecondary power sources including main engines, auxiliary and ground power units, batteries, ram air turbines, and fuel cells\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e\u003cb\u003eHydraulic system components, covering hydraulic fluids, pumps, and piping, reservoirs, filters, accumulators, and relief valves\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e\u003cb\u003eAircraft icing and rain protection, covering ice protection systems such as electro-impulse de-icing and chemical ice protection systems\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eAircraft Systems\u003c\/i\u003e is an essential resource for undergraduate and postgraduate students studying the design of fixed wing aircraft systems.
