The book presents methods of calculating flight trajectories of various aircraft and spacecraft. Equations of motion in inertial and noninertial reference systems are derived, along with fundamental laws of flight dynamics and background information on the mathematics of investigation of flight trajectories. Quasi-steady and unsteady motion are examined in relation to additional kinematic couplings, along with general and variational methods of solving problems in flight dynamics. Methods of calculating elements of trajectories, and takeoff and landing characteristics of aircraft, including ballistic rockets, orbital aircraft, artificial satellites, and spececraft are given. Methods of calculating the trajectory of ballistic rockets over powered and passive phases is given, along with methods of calculating the trajectory of motion of artificial satellites when injected into orbit. Methods of optimal control of spacecraft are examined briefly. (Author)
