Aerodynamic admittance and turbulent flow analysis constitute a critical framework for understanding the unsteady aerodynamic forces encountered by structures in realistic wind conditions. This body ...

Drag and lift are the forces which act on a body moving through a fluid, or on a stationary object in a flowing fluid. We call these aerodynamic forces (if the fluid is a gas) or hydrodynamic forces ...

Long-span bridges epitomise the confluence of aesthetic appeal and advanced engineering design, yet they also face complex challenges associated with wind-induced phenomena. The study of aerodynamics ...

Butterflies' flight trajectories often appear random or chaotic, but their hovering patterns can potentially provide critical design insights for developing micro aerial vehicles with flapping wings.

Aerodynamics as a research area investigates the behavior of gases, primarily air, and the forces and flow phenomena arising when bodies move through them or when gas flows around stationary objects.

NASA has contracted Virginia's Advanced Air Company to design and build a prototype of a new type of transition-capable eVTOL drone – a tilt-wing concept that uses aerodynamic forces instead of ...
