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 ...

Aeroacoustics, the study of noise generation via unsteady aerodynamic phenomena, occupies a pivotal role in the evolution of modern airfoil design. Contemporary research explores the interplay between ...

Check out the world’s first R/C Airfoil Flairboat, featuring a unique airfoil design for improved performance on water. This ...

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 ...

As the angle of attack is increased on a high-performance airfoil, a small amount of separation occurs near the leading edge. This separation causes the boundary layer to transition from laminar to ...

From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or ...

As a result of these challenges, most flying wing projects and prototypes never take-off, literally or figuratively. In fact, ...

Illustration of the airflow along an airfoil that exhibits leading-edge stall behavior. Notice the formation of a “short bubble” at a critical point along the leading edge. When the AOA is increased ...
