While there are already a few electric aircraft models on the market, like Pipistrel's ALPHA Electro trainer plane, the X-57 project is unique because it's not just testing an electric propulsion system, but also studying how electric motors can change the aerodynamics of the aircraft and create brand new designs.

And we've gone from aluminum as the material to carbon fiber composites; we've gone from defining aerodynamics in wind tunnels to being able to do it in simulation, through cloud computing; we've gone from engines that are loud and very inefficient to modern jet engines that are quiet and sip fuel.

Nick Ernest, CEO of Psibernetix, the company that developed ALPHA, told The Verge that while the simulator can still be improved in terms of making it more life-like (such as including more realistic modeling of aerodynamics), the AI will be more than capable of taking these changes on board.

In fact, ever since the California Institute of Technology aerodynamics and missile expert Tsien Hsue-shen returned to China in 1955 — and became instrumental in building China's missile industry — the F.B.I. has been well aware of the danger this peculiar kind of reverse brain drain poses for the United States.

A few years ago, Blake Scholl, a former coder and longtime amateur pilot, was messing around with spreadsheet models and realized that a number of recent advances in aerodynamics and engine technology could, in theory, allow engineers to build a plane that was far more fuel-efficient than the Concorde.

If you prefer patience and precision in the heat of battle instead of a steady stream of darts, Nerf has taken the upgraded design of its Accustrike darts, which feature a redesigned tip improving airflow, aerodynamics, and accuracy, and have applied it to the brand's oversized MEGA darts in a new dart sniper rifle.

He wants to literally jet ski "As engineering challenges go it doesn't get more unique than this, so the next few months are going to be very exciting," states Ian Anderton, a thermal and aerodynamics manager for Jaguar Land Rover who can now joyously add "jet-powered ski suit design" to his LinkedIn skills.

They didn't, possibly because of the NTSB investigation, but Facebook did issue a statement today emphasizing the positive outcomes of the test: We were happy with the successful first test flight and were able to verify several performance models and components including aerodynamics, batteries, control systems and crew training, with no major unexpected results.

After surviving regulation changes last season that altered the aerodynamics of the car and the tires — which was the sport's attempt, in part, to shake off their hegemony after they won a third consecutive championship in 26 — Mercedes still made it four in a row in October, clinching the constructors' crown in Austin, Tex.

" One of the first private pioneers was Burt Rutan, a mutton-chopped aircraft designer who regarded NASA as a bloated and unimaginative bureaucracy and in 22015 founded a company called Scaled Composites that designed aircraft so innovative that, as Davenport writes, "it was as if his inspiration came not just from the laws of aerodynamics but from Picasso.

Formula One teams are limited in the number of hours they may use the wind tunnel to develop a car's aerodynamics, and Mercedes suspected that Ferrari could gain an advantage by developing both its own car and the Haas, which many say is merely a carbon copy of the Ferrari, making it a Ferrari B team.

The hollow carbon wings are 24 meters tall and have an area of 101 square meters * Key differences include the structure of the wing, "fairings", which improve aerodynamics and limit drag, the size and shape of the curved foil blades and the hydraulic systems * The boats are sailed by a crew of six and steered with high-tech steering wheels.
