A series of experiments using paper airplanes reveals new aerodynamic effects, a team of scientists has discovered. Its findings enhance our understanding of flight stability and could inspire new ...
Airplane takeoff speed is highly variable and depends on an aircraft's specific aerodynamic design (shape, wing features) and current environmental conditions (weather, density altitude, wind). The ...
Aerodynamics explains how airplanes fly through the interplay of four fundamental forces: lift, weight, thrust, and drag. Lift opposes gravity, thrust propels forward, and drag resists motion. Pilots ...

The evolution of F1 aerodynamics and why it changed everything
Modern Formula 1 is defined as much by invisible air as by roaring engines. Over half a century, teams have turned ...
Paper airplanes are something that kids all over the world are familiar with. After all, they are a toy that can be made almost anywhere as all you need is a piece of paper and the ability to fold it ...
Unsure about a new design? Scientists and engineers often start with a model. With a model, you can test new ideas on a small-scale before going bigger. They are also cheaper, easier to produce, and ...
