A wonderful comparative review of this very classical field! Before I completed my M.D., my previous degree was in Mechanical & Aerospace Engineering as a dual degree. My true passion from the beginning was always Aerospace & Aeronautical Engineering from the among the specialized fields. However, just as you stated for yourself, I opted to do the solid field of Mechanical Engineering with the combination of Aerospace Engineering. It was not just for the broader job prospects, but for having a more authentic detailed approach towards design and research. My Senior Design Project before graduation was on my unique idea of the “Space Shuttle Orbiter Retractable Wing Design with Wind Tunnel Aerodynamic Analysis”. The marriage of the two Engineering fields allowed me to have a better sense of depth to my quantitative analysis and creative ideas. I compare this to doing Internal Medicine first (analogous to Mechanical Engineering) and then doing a Neurology fellowship later (like Aerospace afterwards or congruently like I did) rather than only doing the Neurology speciality from the beginning. Thank you again for such an inspiring review of two very respectable fields. ~ Dr. Sanjay Kumar Sr., M.D., B.S.(Aerospace)
Consider the NACA 0012 airfoil at zero angle of attack. The minimum pressure coefficient, measured in a wind tunnel at low speed, is -0.56. Estimate the critical Mach number of the NACA 0012 airfoil at zero angle of attack using the Prandtl-Glauert rule. Where γ = 1.4. Please can u send me solution❓
I want to become an aerospace engineer because I want to write stories on how to advocate and inspire other young girls that engineering is important and they should major in it.
They're obviously trying to inspire more women to enter the field. And curiously enough, I've also seen a great deal of videos like this involving men.
