The measurement of aerodynamic forces in shock tunnels is a critical area in high-speed aerodynamics research. In these facilities, short-duration, high-enthalpy flows pose unique challenges that ...

The two-dimensional unsteady motion of an aerofoil, situated midway between parallel walls, and moving through an inviscid, incompressible fluid, is investigated. A completely general upwash ...

In this project an attempt has been made to evaluate the use of a narrow-width moving ground facility for wind tunnel testing of racing cars. The investigation concerned boundary layer measurements ...

High-speed train aerodynamics is a critical field that underpins both the safety and performance of modern rail transportation. As trains operate at increasing speeds, they encounter complex airflow ...

Drag and lift are the forces which act on a body moving through a fluid, or on a stationary object in a flowing fluid. We call these aerodynamic forces (if the fluid is a gas) or hydrodynamic forces ...

The topic unsteady aerodynamics plays a critical role in aerospace engineering, exploring the intricate dynamic nature of the aerodynamic forces and moments generated as flexible aircraft or ...

Vortex. Vortices. Swirls of air trailing behind wings as they produce lift. You know from the movies what happens to a jet flying through another jet's wake, but what happens to a missile's tail fins ...

It was a red Lamborghini Countach, parked with its scissor doors open to let the sunlight in, what most probably sparked Alex's love for cars. Even though he was less than three years old when he saw ...

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 ...
