Aerodynamic shape optimization and design sits at the intersection of fluid mechanics, computational modelling and advanced optimisation algorithms.

Simply put, this field of study isn't just limited to machines associated with flight, such as frisbees, kites, aircraft, and rockets, but also includes land vehicles, such as motorcycles and ...

Developed with gravel racers and refined in the wind tunnel, Apidura now offers a nearly universal fit Aero System pair of compact bikepacking bags ...

A streamlined shape has a profile that has low resistance to motion in air, which in turn, minimizes the aerodynamic drag. An example of a streamlined shape is a teardrop profile – the gradually ...

The study of aerodynamics examines how the movement of air on, under, and through a vehicle influences said vehicle’s performance. Be it as a whole vehicle or engineered at the component level (like ...

This, in turn, reduces aerodynamic drag considerably, making the ship more energy-efficient,” says Kewei Xu, postdoc researcher at Chalmers.

Also crucial is a dramatic upswing of the rear fenders, culminating in a rear spoiler mounted at a 45-degree angle.

Bombardier is embarking on the second phase of testing for its EcoJet program, the company announced at the recent European Business Aviation Convention and Exhibition.

Developed through new 3-D-printing capabilities, the enhanced head shape has smoother curves for less drag while maintaining lower spin and stability on off-center strikes.

Aerodynamic shape optimisation and design represent a critical domain in modern engineering, integrating advanced computational techniques with physics‐based models to enhance the aerodynamic ...
