Flow control techniques and aerodynamic improvements developed at the Georgia Institute of Technology could save the U.S. trucking industry hundreds of millions of gallons of fuel per year. Recent ...

Abstract: Flow control is the notion of manipulating the evolution of a fluid flow to achieve a desired outcome using passive or active means. Flow control technologies can enhance performance and ...

Membrane wings in micro air vehicles (MAVs) represent a promising avenue for enhancing aerodynamic performance in low Reynolds number regimes. These flexible lifting surfaces, inspired by natural ...

Interest is running at an all-time high when it comes to trailer aerodynamics these days. After suffering through one of the worst oil price shocks in history last summer with prices climbing to more ...

DENTON, TX. Improving the aerodynamic performance of highway tractors often boils down to making small yet significant changes to its exterior shape – changes that can also be canceled out by ...

Its fun to track torque and horsepower numbers, but aerodynamics has become almost as important when it comes to building ...

The objective of the European Cleansky project is to develop new technologies for future aircraft enabling a 20- 30% fuel burn reduction and related CO2 emissions and a similar reduction in noise ...

Abstract: The safe flight of small unmanned aircraft or drones in gusty environments, the use of aeroelastically sensitive aircraft for communications and remote networking, and the efficient ...

When it comes to all the various forms of motorsports, aerodynamics is a topic of constant debate. That is, until you get to drifting. To spark some talk before the 2018 Formula DRIFT Season starts — ...

When a team sets up a race car they do it while it is at rest on a surface plate or scale. They are concerned with balancing the car front to rear to achieve a "neutral" status of the static weight.

FlowBelow Aero recently announced that it locking aerodynamic wheel cover now be standard on all Freightliner Cascadia trucks starting at the beginning of the year after both companies recently signed ...
