DESCRIPTION:
"Bird strikes are one of the
most dangerous threats to civil and military flight safety: between 1960 and
2014, they were responsible for the destruction of approximately 150 civil
aircraft and the deaths of 271 people.
Bird Strike presents a summary of
the damage imposed on the aviation industries by their avian counterparts. This
book first presents and analyzes the statistics obtained from bird strike
databases and offers various methods for minimizing the overall probability of
bird-strike events. The next chapters explore how to analyze the ability of aero-engine
critical structures to withstand bird-strike events by implementing reliable
experimental, theoretical, and numerical methods. Finally, the book
investigates the impact of bird strikes on different components of aircrafts,
such as the metal fuselage, composite fuselage, engines, wings, and tail, and
proposes two new bird models, with explanations of their use.
Provides up-to-date information
for aviation staff and researchers working on aircraft safety
Offers comprehensive
investigations on all the statistical, theoretical, experimental, and numerical
aspects of bird strike
Includes studies carried out on bird strike and provides the reader with
the important findings of each paper"
