ISAE-SUPAERO, de wereldleider op het gebied van lucht- en ruimtevaarttechniekopleidingen, lanceert in het voorjaar een nieuwe MOOC: “ABC van Flight Mechanica: Hoe vliegen vliegtuigen?

TOULOUSE, Frankrijk (BUSINESS WIRE) – “ABC of Flight Mechanics: Hoe vliegen vliegtuigen”: een MOOC gewijd aan vliegmechanica.

Het begrip vlucht tart vaak onze menselijke aardse instincten. Hoe vliegt een vliegtuig? Hoe kan een piloot de controle behouden? Hoe hoog in de lucht kan een vliegtuig klimmen? Hoe vliegt een gevechtspiloot tijdens het draaien?

Deze online cursus (beschikbaar in het Engels) zal vele onderwerpen behandelen, zoals atmosferische fysica en Newton’s wetten toegepast op vliegtuigen, maar ook voortstuwingskrachten en longitudinale stabiliteit de kwestie van tractie.

ISAE-SUPAERO Launches a New MOOC about Flight Mechanics

ISAE-SUPAERO, the world leader in aerospace engineering training, will launch a new MOOC in spring: “ABC of Flight Mechanics: How Do Planes Fly?”

TOULOUSE, France–(BUSINESS WIRE)– “ABC of Flight Mechanics: How Do Planes Fly?”: a MOOC dedicated to flight mechanics.

The notion of flight often defies our human terrestrial instincts. How does an airplane fly? How can a pilot maintain control? How high in the sky can an aircraft climb? How does a fighter pilot fly while spinning?

This online course (available in English) will cover many topics, such as atmospheric physics and Newton’s laws applied to aircraft, as well as propulsion forces and longitudinal stability the question of traction.

The MOOC “ABC of Flight Mechanics” is aimed at general public with a specific level of scientific knowledge. Nevertheless, various levels of learning are available, thus it allows all students to take the course without needing to plenty understand the mathematical principles. Undergraduate students in aerospace engineering, trainees as well as novice and experienced pilots, journalists and professionals in the aeronautics domain (business, engineering, marketing, communications, etc.) and all aircraft enthusiasts will be able to enrich their knowledge.

MOOC start date: 25 March 2019
Please note: this MOOC is available in English only.
