The upcoming test campaign at NASA's Armstrong Flight Research Center (AFRC) is the culmination of the program that included ...
NASA researchers successfully completed a high-speed taxi test of a scale model of a design that could make future aircraft more efficient by improving how air flows across a wing's surface, saving ...
Turbulence is one of the great mysteries of modern science. It is also one of the most important, as most of the flows we’re interested in are turbulent. In some applications, such as industrial ...
In the quest for greater efficiency of large transport aircraft, efforts to reduce wing drag through conventional aerodynamic tweaks have largely been exhausted, in the view of Airbus senior ...
Going with the flow: does an extra term lead to a better model of turbulence? (Courtesy: iStock/Mumemories) Identifying universal laws within fluid mechanics is notoriously difficult. So it has come ...
Physics educator and YouTuber, Derek Muller, a.k.a. Veritasium, recently posted a video on the topic of turbulence, and it will change the way you see the chaotic, fluid motion forever. Not only does ...
