Progress In Astronautics and Aeronautics
This book is a compilation of scientific papers presented at a July 1991 conference which was scheduled to coincide with the 15th anniversary of the unmanned Viking landing on the planet Mars. The conference was planned to cover past, present and future missions to Mars, with the papers of past missions serving as an historic scientific base, and papers of the future missions to Mars serving as the main focus of the conference. Chapters are grouped into six sections: overviews, prior missions, rationale and benefits of future missions, robotic missions, systems concepts and operations, and technology for future missions.
Rarefied Gas Dynamics
The aim of this book is to present the concepts, methods and applications of kinetic theory to rarefied gas dynamics. After introducing the basic tools, problems in plane geometry are treated using approximation techniques (perturbation and numerical methods). These same techniques are later used to deal with two- and three-dimensional problems. The models include not only monatomic but also polyatomic gases, mixtures, chemical reactions. A special chapter is devoted to evaporation and condensation phenomena. Each section is accompanied by problems which are mainly intended to demonstrate the use of the material in the text and to outline additional subjects, results and equations. This will help ensure that the book can be used for a range of graduate courses in aerospace engineering or applied mathematics.
