"Atmospheric and Space Flight Dynamics: Modeling and Simulation with MATLAB® and Simulink®" by Ashish Tewari

This book is a unified presentation, demonstrating that the two disciplines have actually evolved from the same set of physical principles. Primarily useful as a textbook for advanced undergraduate and beginning graduate-level students, the work is also an excellent reference or self-study guide for researchers and practitioners in aerospace engineering, aviation, mechanical engineering, dynamics, astrodynamics, aeronautics, and astronautics.

Key features include
• an introduction to a broad range of modern topics in an accessible, yet mathematically rigorous presentation;
• many numerical examples and simulations utilizing MATLAB® and Simulink®;
• software used as an instructional, hands-on tool, moving away from the 'cookbook' approach found in other works; and
• numerous illustrations and end-of-chapter exercises.
