This article outlines some of the key issues in the development of algorithms for fluid flow simulation, andtheir use for aircraft design. The volume of work in computational fluid dynamics precludes a comprehensivereview in an article of this length, and the choice of topics must necessarily be personal. Some representativeexamples of flow calculations have been [...]

The last half-century has seen more technological advances than perhaps anyother 50-year period in world history. From space travel to microprocessors, the publichas been given capabilities and possibilities that would have been unimaginable, let aloneachievable, only two generations earlier. Though many different people have beeninvolved in making these things possible, the military and the defense [...]

Airbus didn’t set out to break the world’s record, nor are they trying to impress you with size, they’d rather you be impressed by economicadvantages. The “Giant of the Skies” will require only 2.9 litres (.75 gallons) of fuel per passenger per 100 kilometers (62 miles) and wouldthus be the first “Three Litre Aircraft”. The [...]
