    Resources
  • With over 70 years of engineering knowledge and best practices validated by subject matter experts from industry, government and academia, we help design engineers solve complex problems. IHS ESDU covers aircraft design and performance, structural analysis, heat exchanger design and more, enabling engineers to:

    • Explore design alternatives, theories and references early in the process
    • Utilize prediction methods calibrated against qualified data from multiple sources
    • Define processes and principles to better understand applicability and limitations
    • View best practices, including accuracy, references, derivation lists and worked examples
    • Interpret results in a practical engineering context
    • Increase visibility into design data flows to mitigate risks and ensure compliance
    Who uses ESDU? How?
    OEMs and supplier companies engaged in commercial and military aerospace design and analysis work Validate data and methods for the design of commercial/military airframes, helicopters, satellite systems, unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), missiles, launch vehicles, military ships, land systems, weapons systems and submarines
    Director of engineering, engineering manager, lead engineer, design engineer, chief designer Improve the fundamental design and operations analysis to ensure quality and compliance
  • ESDU methods, data and software supplement internal design tools and are co-developed by aerospace industry expert committees and ESDU engineers. This collaboration helps identify knowledge gaps and build confident, consensual solutions. ESDU Aerospace design tools cover:  

    • Aerodynamic design, flow systems and components
    • Aircraft stability, stress analysis and performance 
    • Metallic materials, properties development and standardization 
  • IHS ESDU Process Engineering Technology (PET) is a collection of over 100 design guides and software for a wide range of practical heat transfer and fluid flow applications. Our process engineering solutions software allows engineers to:  

    • Increase design efficiency and process plant system operability
    • Assess environmental impact from use of energy, water and fouling, including crude oil pre-heat trains
    • Utilize guidelines on design, performance, prediction and retrofitting

    IHS SmartPM
    IHS SmartPM software accesses simulation data and fitting fouling physics models to help with a wide range of planning scenarios. These include optimum predictive maintenance schedule development and assessment of economic and environmental performance benefits of revamps and network redesign.

  • Our more than 100 qualified data items help academic institutions stay current on the latest design tools. Academics can then collaborate across the world to create projects and dissertations for real-time scenarios. Engineering resources include the SAE Technical Papers and the E.F. Bruhn Analysis and Design of Flight Vehicle Structures.
