Version 0.4.8.2
November-05-2007 version (3.1M pp. 353)
for this release
- Add several additions to the isentropic flow, normal shock, Rayleigh Flow.
- Improve some examples.
- More changes to the script to generate separate chapters sections.
- Add new macros to work better so that php and pdf version will be similar.
- More English revisions.
Version 0.4.8
November-05-2007 version for this release
- Add the new unchoked subsonic Fanno Flow section which include the ``unknown'' diameter question.
- Shock (Wave) drag explanation with example.
- Some examples were add and fixing other examples (small perturbations of oblique shock).
- Minor English revisions.
Version 0.4.4.3pr1
July-10-2007 version for this release
- Improvement of the pdf version provide links.
Version 0.4.4.2a
July-4-2007 version for this release
- Major English revisions in Rayleigh Flow Chapter.
- Continue the improvement of the HTML version (imageonly issues).
- Minor content changes and addition of an example.
Version 0.4.4.2
May-22-2007 version for this release
- Major English revisions.
- Continue the improvement of the HTML version.
- Minor content change and addition of an example.
Version 0.4.4.1
Feb-21-2007 version for this release
- Include the indexes subjects and authors.
- Continue the improve the HTML version.
- solve problems with some of the figures location (float problems)
- Improve some spelling and grammar.
- minor content change and addition of an example.
- The main change is the inclusion of the indexes
(subject and authors). There were some additions
to the content which include an example. The "naughty
professor's questions" section isn't completed and is
waiting for interface of Potto-GDC to be finished
(engine is finished, hopefully next two weeks). Some
grammar and misspelling corrections were added.
Now include a script that append a title page to every pdf fraction of the book (it was fun to solve this one). Continue to insert the changes (log) to every source file (latex) of the book when applicable. This change allows to follow the progression of the book. Most the tables now have the double formatting one for the html and one for the hard copies.
