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 ...

It was a dramatic and unusual sight: a Delta Air Lines passenger jet crash-landed on Monday at Toronto Pearson International ...

Aerodynamic force measurement is crucial in the development and testing of high-speed vehicles, particularly in hypersonic wind tunnels. These facilities simulate the extreme conditions that ...

It also has a range of aerodynamic design elements. Similar features are incorporated into bicycles for some road-racing events in which Lance Armstrong competes. As the bicycle and its rider move ...

The six-component internal force balance (AEROLAB) is available for aerodynamic force measurement (as shown In Fig. 2), which has the measurement ranges described in the following table.

NASA’s Sustainable Flight Demonstrator project recently concluded wind tunnel tests of its X-66 semi-span model in ...

The rapid prediction of aerodynamic performance is critical in the conceptual and preliminary design of hypersonic vehicles.
