aircraft, part of the Autonomous Formation Flight (AFF) project based at NASA’s Dryden Flight Research Center, Edwards, Calif., flew the mission in early December. During the 96-minute flight, the ...
NASA tests could pave the way for formation flying by freighters and manned and unmanned military aircraft Flying in wingtip-to-wingtip formation can produce fuel savings of over 15%, NASA has ...
The study of vortex dynamics in fluid mechanics is critical for both advancing aeronautical design and minimising flow-induced hazards. At its core, vortex dynamics examines the formation, evolution, ...
