Active flutter suppression is an increasingly critical field in aeronautical engineering, addressing the challenges posed by the dynamic aeroelastic interactions in modern flexible aircraft. As ...

Over the past ten years or so, American space agency NASA has become a major player in the aviation industry, getting itself involved in all sorts of projects meant to inform the design of the ...

Engineers in the United States are betting that ultra-long, ultra-thin wings can make jet travel quieter, smoother and significantly cheaper to operate. Instead of the familiar stubby wings of today’s ...

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 ...
