Book excerpt: The aircraft manufacturer Airbus was established in 1970 by the French, German and UK governments (with the Spanish government joining a year later) in order to develop a coordinated and collaborative European response to the dominance of the global civil aviation market by American companies. Since October 2006, following the decision by BAE Systems to sell its stake in the company, Airbus has been wholly owned by EADS (a joint venture between its French, German and Spanish parent companies).Recent Developments with Airbus (HC 427-I) examines recent challenges faced by Airbus, including reduced competitiveness as a result of the weak US dollar, delays and cost overruns in its flagship A380 aircraft, its restructuring programme, and the financing of the A350 XWB project. It also looks at the future role for the UK Government and the Regional Development Agencies, the implementation of the UK's National Aerospace Technology Strategy, and the impact of the current World Trade Organization (WTO) dispute between the US and the European Union (EU) over government subsidies.Given the fact that the sale of BAE's stake in the company has left the UK without a significant shareholding in

Book excerpt: Now covering both conventional and unmanned systems, this isa significant update of the definitive book on aircraft systemdesign Design and Development of Aircraft Systems, SecondEdition is for people who want to understand how industrydevelops the customer requirement into a fully integrated, tested,and qualified product that is safe to fly and fit for purpose. Thisedition has been updated to take into account the growth ofunmanned air vehicles, together with updates to all chapters tobring them in line with current design practice and technologies astaught on courses at BAE Systems and Cranfield, Bristol andLoughborough universities in the UK. Design and Development of Aircraft Systems, SecondEdition Provides a holistic view of aircraft system design describingthe interaction between all of the subsystems such as fuel system,navigation, flight control etc. Covers all aspects of design including systems engineering,design drivers, systems architectures, systems integration,modelling of systems, practical considerations, & systemsexamples. Incorporates essential new material on Unmanned AircraftSystems (UAS). Design and Development of Aircraft Systems,Second Edition has been written to be generic and not todescribe any single process. It aims to complement othervolumes in the Wiley Aerospace Series, in particular AircraftSystems, Third Edition and Civil Avionics Systems by thesame authors, and will inform readers of the work that is carriedout by engineers in the aerospace industry to produce innovativeand challenging – yet safe and reliable – systems andaircraft. Essential reading for Aerospace Engineers.

Book excerpt: Glare is the name given to a new material for aircraft structures developed at Delft University in the Netherlands. It consists of thin aluminium layers bonded together by adhesive containing embedded fibres and is very resistant to fatigue. This book gives the inside story of how the development of Glare took place. It took more than two decades from the first tests in Delft to the major breakthrough following the decision of Airbus to apply the material on the A380 super-jumbo. This success was achieved by a small group of people inspired by professor Boud Vogelesang, people who kept believing in the material and fought against all obstacles during the years. This book tells the story of the ups and downs and the final success of their efforts.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When it comes to very highly complex, commercially funded product-development projects it is not sufficient to apply standard project management techniques to manage and keep them under control. Instead, they need a project management approach which is perfectly adapted to their complex nature. This, however, may generate additional cost and a dilemma arises because in commercially-driven product developments there is the natural tendency to limit the management-related costs. The development of a new commercial aircraft is no exception. In fact, it can be regarded as an extreme example of this kind of project. This is why it is especially useful to analyse the project management capabilities and practices needed to manage them. Cost reductions can still be achieved by concentrating on the essential elements of some project management disciplines, to maintain their principal strengths, and combining them in a pragmatic way on the basis of an integrated architecture. This book goes beyond descriptions of management disciplines found elsewhere in its treatment of the architecture integration necessary to interlink product, process and resources data. Only with this connectedness can the interoperation of the management essentials yield maximum efficiency and effectiveness. Commercial Aircraft Projects: Managing the Development of Highly Complex Products proposes an integrated architecture and details, step-by-step, how it can be used for the management of commercial aircraft development projects. The findings can also be applied to other industrial sectors that produce complex hardware based on design inputs.
