Silent flight edges closer to take off, according to new research

Researchers at the University of Bristol in the UK have discovered how noise is generated and propagated by boundary layer ingesting ducted fans in aircraft.
New method for detecting unusual air turbulence holds promise for aviation safety

Researchers at the Civil Aviation University of China have developed a new method using genetic programming to improve turbulence detection from aircraft’s Quick Access Recorders.
Supercomputer used to predict clear air turbulence

From NAGOYA UNIVERSITY 13/07/2023 A research group from Nagoya University has accurately simulated air turbulence occurring on clear days around Tokyo using Japan’s fastest supercomputer. They then compared their findings with flight data to create a more accurate predictive model. The research was reported in the journal Geophysical Research Letters. Although air turbulence is usually associated […]
