General
Course follows AERO 3002:
Basic design approach, sizing, loads, structures
Concept sizing parameters based on historical data
e.g. weights, performance matching
Next steps: definition of various aircraft systems
Objectives: system performance, integration with
other systems
COMPLEX PROCESS: must be organized,
disciplined and iterative
AERO 4003: Systems Engineering, bldg blocks

First some advice
Attention to detail!
Professional behaviour: ALL
Basic engineering knowledge expected
No narrow focus, be excited about
aerospace
Design course – application focus

Active class: questions & discussions


Material at times dry – overcome this
