Description

This lecture covers the calculation of aerodynamic moments about the leading edge due to pressure distribution, including the moment around the origin and the sign convention. It explains how to calculate nose-up and nose-down pitching moments, the pitching motion conversion between reference points, the concept of the centre of pressure, and the aerodynamic centre on an airfoil.
