Flight at extreme speeds.
The aviation field is growing increasingly interested in hypersonic speed for passenger transportation, which requires careful study of enabling technologies for optimal vehicle design.
This paper aims to describe the dynamics and control of these vehicles, taking into account some of the recent experimental models.
While significant work has been done on air-breathing hypersonic technology, there remain critical technological gaps that need to be filled before hypersonic transport systems can be a reality.
Hypersonic flight has long been a goal of aerospace engineers, as it promises to revolutionize air and space travel by dramatically reducing travel times and enabling access to space at a lower cost.
