GKN Aerospace announced that it has delivered the first FTE for Airbus’ ”Wing of tomorrow” research programme from its global technology centre (GTC) in Bristol. This builds upon the successful ...
Our simulations of forces, torques, power expenditure and flow fields show great consistency, with the aerodynamic features being entirely robust to the wide variety of body velocities and wing ...
A team of researchers from Air Force Research Laboratory (AFRL), NASA and FlexSys Inc. accomplished a long-sought goal in aviation research April 22 with the last flight of the Adaptive Compliant ...
Airbus is working to reach the design freeze for the largest A350 variant, the -1000, in the middle of this year and has revealed that the stretched aircraft will feature a slightly larger wing the ...
Scientists at NASA are testing a new aircraft wing surface capable of changing shape during flight, which aims to make airliners quieter and significantly boost fuel efficiency. Researchers have ...
The trailing edge of wind turbine blades can be manufactured in an elastic material that makes it possible to control the shape of the trailing edge. This will reduce the considerably dynamic loads ...
NASA has kicked off a flight test campaign to evaluate wing surfaces that can change shape in-flight. The Adaptive Compliant Trailing Edge (ACTE) joint effort between NASA and the US Air Force ...
A new sound-suppression study provides fresh insight for airfoil design and noise control for micro-aircraft and fluid machinery. The research focused on the concept of trailing-edge noise by using ...
The combed-teeth structure of Siemens’ new low-noise DinoTail aerodynamic blade add-on mimics an owl wing’s trailing edge fringe. For comparison, an un-combed blade is shown on the left. Following ...
