Engineering experts from FIU and Lehigh University are using an innovative part-physical, part-computational testing method known as real-time cyber-physical modeling to get a full picture of how ...
Wind-tunnel testing is crucial for Formula 1 teams to study and optimize a car's aerodynamics. Aerodynamics have become vital as regulations have emphasized downforce and airflow. This article is part ...
Despite advances in computational fluid dynamics modeling, physical testing of cars in wind tunnels remains valuable for carmakers. That's why Mercedes opened the Sindelfingen wind tunnel in 2013, and ...
A new high-tech facility in the United States is expected to address issues in hypersonic research and testing. The Mach 10 quiet wind tunnel of University of Notre Dame can simulate hypersonic flight ...
Wind tunnels are a mainstay in automotive engineering, but what if instead of simulating the car moving down the road, you could drive it down the road? That’s the purpose of the new Catesby Tunnel in ...
Wonder no moreYou hear the advice all the time from the "know-it-alls" in racing (yes, that applies to us, too): No matter how small your track or how slow your car, good aerodynamic practices can ...
A University of Tennessee team secured funding for a $17.8 million grant from the U.S. Air Force to create a wind tunnel that can subject samples of materials like high-temperature ceramics to ...
