Airliners have looked largely the same for a long time now. The ongoing hunt for efficiency gains has seen the development of winglets, drag reducing films, and all manner of little aerodynamic tricks ...

Grasshopper’s gangly, awkward flight could solve the biggest power problems in robotics. Standard micro-bots are modeled ...

United Airlines (NASDAQ:UAL) aims to be one of the first U.S. commercial carriers to fly passengers on a futuristic blended wing body ("BWB") aircraft, thanks to its investment in startup JetZero, ...

Tiny flying robots have always faced a brutal trade-off between agility and battery life, burning through power just to stay ...

By studying how grasshoppers glide and fold their wings, researchers are finding new ways to extend flight time for ...

Luminary Cloud has launched Shift-Wing, an AI-powered model and dataset designed to accelerate the conceptual design of advanced aircraft wings, from subsonic all the way up to transonic speeds. The ...

Today, aircraft wings are increasingly designed to prioritize stealth characteristics over raw speed—giving them a smooth, unbroken connection to the aircraft’s main fuselage. The wing of a fighter ...

This unique blended-wing airliner promises not only to reduce fuel burn and emissions by an enormous 50% - but thanks to a new partnership, it could also be the best chance we've seen to deliver ...

Turbulence is a common, and often harmless, part of air travel. It is caused by irregular airflow in the atmosphere and occurs when air masses moving at different speeds or directions interact, ...
