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 ...
Airliners have looked largely the same for a long time now. The ongoing hunt for efficiency gains has seen the development of winglets, drag reducing films, and all manner of little aerodynamic tricks ...
Researchers are pulling inspiration from the Wright brothers' twisted wood-and-canvas wings in order to make today's flying more efficient. MIT and NASA have designed a new kind of bendable, 'morphing ...
The Blended Wing Body (BWB) concept represents a transformative shift in aircraft design, merging the wing and fuselage into a single, continuous lifting surface. This integration offers substantial ...
Experience the future of flight with the Horten HX-2, a unique flying wing aircraft from Horten Aircraft. This video explores its innovative integrated wing design, rear-mounted propeller, and ...
Turbulence is a common, and often harmless, part of air travel. It is caused by irregular airflow in the atmosphere and ...
The 777X is designed to operate at the very limits of airport infrastructure, wing loading, and aerodynamic efficiency.
Though they were initially employed in production cars solely for aerodynamic purposes, spoilers and rear wings eventually morphed into iconic styling elements. For decades, race cars and production ...
