Peek out the window on an A350 flight and you’ll see wings that bend, flex, and adapt in order to make long-haul flying ...
Aerodynamic shape optimization and design sits at the intersection of fluid mechanics, computational modelling and advanced optimisation algorithms. This field seeks to refine the contours of ...
Flapping-wing micro air vehicles (FWMAVs) are characterized by their compact size, lightweight design, and high maneuverability, making them highly practical for various applications. However, the ...
The Boeing 747-8's innovative raked wingtips offer a sleek, integrated solution to reduce induced drag.
Horizon Aircraft's Cavorite X7 already sported a radical design, even within the wild world of hybrid eVTOLs. That design has now been updated, however, for enhanced aerodynamics, cruising performance ...
NASA has contracted Virginia's Advanced Air Company to design and build a prototype of a new type of transition-capable eVTOL drone – a tilt-wing concept that uses aerodynamic forces instead of ...
Taking a cue from birds and insects, researchers have come up with a new wing design for small drones that helps them fly more efficiently and makes them more robust to atmospheric turbulence.
From an original article by Dr. Steve Liddle CEng FRAeS, Vulcan to the Sky Trustee and Principal Aerodynamicist at Visa Cash App RB F1 Team Aerodynamics at the Edge: How Innovation Shaped the Avro ...
With additive manufacturing, used to build this heat exchanger, one key is to do prototyping for the part and then see whether additive or subtractive manufacturing is the better choice of manufacture ...
