High-fidelity simulations of the SHM1 natural laminar flow airfoil, developed for Honda's business jet, reveal how Kutta ...

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 ...

Aircraft wing designs have constantly been reworked over the years. From the Wright brothers mulling over the likes of aspect ratios in their bid to achieve the first flight in the early 1900s, to ...

WASHINGTON, January 18, 2022 -- Trailing-edge noise is the dominant source of sound from aeronautical and turbine engines like those in airplanes, drones, and wind turbines. Suppressing this noise ...

Researchers at UPES Dehradun have combined CFD simulations with machine learning, including a physics-guided neural network, to rapidly optimize drone wing airfoils for flight in Mars's extremely ...

Researchers have formulated a mathematical solution that could help minimize noise, maximize aerodynamics in design of porous airfoils (2-D wings) to improve wind turbines and air vehicles. Many ...

My airplane building has reached a level that would have been unthinkable to me a few years ago. The main wings are produced ...

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.

Many species of owl are able to hunt without being heard by their prey by suppressing the noise of their wings at sound frequencies above 1.6 kilohertz (kHz)—including the range at which human hearing ...
