AUVs are becoming essential research tools for oceanographers, but the range of the onboard battery limits the lengths of missions. AirShaper CFD software was used to reduce the drag and improve the hydrodynamic efficiency of a new AUV design, increasing its range. Read More
The America's Cup is the pinnacle of sail boat technology. The move to hydrofoils has opened up many opportunities which are finding their way to commercial products. Read More
Certifying an aircraft to meet EASA regulations requires comprehensive testing programmes, but Computational Fluid Dynamics CFD has now become an integral part of this certification process. Read More
AirShaper sits down with David Solar, engineer at EASA to discuss the challenges of eVTOL certification. Read More
AirShaper software was validated against Flightstream, Star-CCM+ and wind tunnel reference data where the lift, pitching moment and drag coefficients of a Cessna 210 Centurion were analysed Read More
Aerodynamics strongly affects the top speed of an object, whether that be a runner, cyclist, motorcycle, car or aircraft. This article explains why and shares insight into the tactics different industries use to exploit aerodynamics to maximise speed. Read More
Optimizing the aerodynamic behaviour of VTOL drones is becoming more important as the application of drones continues to increase Read More
We used AirShaper software to analyse the aerodynamic effect of the Audi TT spoiler that was added to solve the original TTs high speed stability issues Read More
