The branch of engineering and physics dealing with the mechanical principles, forces, and systems involved in aircraft and aviation.
From 'aeromechanic' + '-ics' (field of study). Formalized as an engineering discipline in the early 20th century alongside aeronautics.
Aeromechanics merges three worlds—the mechanics of engines, the behavior of structures under stress, and the unique demands of machines that must work reliably thousands of feet in the air.
