The National Composites Centre, part of the High Value Manufacturing Catapult, has released a case study detailing their successful delivery of the design and manufacture of vital one-off flying parts to facilitate UK capability towards accelerating new technologies to decarbonise the aviation industry.
From Airbus to Boeing, plane manufacturers are trying out new wing configurations for sustainability and combating turbulence. Here's how.
Airbus will test new aircraft wings within the coming months, including a design that changes shape during flight to maximize aerodynamic efficiency.
Using biomimicry – biologically inspired engineering – the project seeks to develop a composite wing that can change shape and form during flight to maximise its aerodynamic efficiency. If the concept is successful and integrated into new aircraft, it has the potential to significantly reduce fuel consumption. The November first…
The design of the Extra Performance Wing combines the reduced drag of a high-aspect-ratio wing with the greater efficiency of an adaptive profile.
