1969 Charger Daytona’s wind-tunnel pedigree created NASCAR’s wildest aero car
The 1969 Dodge Charger Daytona was built to do one thing better than any muscle car of its era: slice through the air. Its ...
A Purdue University aerospace researcher helped shape plans to install a new experiment currently on the space shuttle Discovery to collect data for controlling deadly friction and heating in the ...
WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. - By using the only wind tunnel capable of running quietly at "hypersonic" speeds, Purdue University engineers have conducted experiments to yield critical data for designing an ...
Baseball has long been a popular topic of research for physicists, largely because of the complex aerodynamics of a baseball in flight. Traditionally, scientists relied upon wind tunnel experiments to ...
AMES, Iowa – From somewhere back behind the Iowa State University Icing Research Tunnel, Rye Waldman called out to see if Hui Hu was ready for a spray of cold water. The wind tunnel was down to 10 ...
Research published in the Journal of Experimental Biology has shown that flying fish are every bit as good at gliding as birds. The fish are able glide for more than 40 seconds, covering distances of ...
The wind tunnel of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, by J.C. Hunsaker.--Notes on the dimensional theory of wind tunnel experiments, by E. Buckingham.--The Pitot tube and the inclined ...
In this work we present laboratory measurements on the reduction of the threshold friction velocity necessary for lifting dust if the dust bed is illuminated. Insolation of a porous soil establishes a ...
Formula 1 teams live in a world where a single misjudged flick of carbon fiber can decide a championship. Aerodynamicists are tasked with turning turbulent air into lap time, and they do it not ...
AMHERST, N.Y. — We have seen how wild weather can cause major damage across our area. The University at Buffalo will continue to study how high winds can affect buildings thanks to a new government ...
The X-51A test vehicle is expected to evolve into missiles capable of flying at Mach 6 – or six times the speed of sound – enabling them to hit mobile “time-critical” targets. Scramjets also may ...
