Transportation Engineering

This resource explores how aerospace engineers apply flight principles in aircraft design and construction, specifically focusing on aspects like flight endurance, trim adjustment, and the role of various components such as wings and stabilizers. It also delves into how engineers incorporate buoyancy principles into effective boat hull design, considering elements like hull shape and stability. Through essential questions and vocabulary, educators can guide students in understanding the key concepts behind model vehicle projects and the broader engineering principles that govern efficient design in both aviation and maritime contexts.
