Engineers at Lehigh University have designed and successfully flight-tested a new control device that a pilot can use to tailor the lateral stability of aircraft. Joachim Grenestedt, associate ...

Scientists are developing a new computer-aided holistic solution for the early phase of aircraft design. With knowledge from many fields, it is possible to propose the right solution for the ...

Modern aerospace engineering increasingly relies on the seamless integration of advanced performance modelling with state‐of‐the‐art flight control systems. These systems optimise aerodynamic ...

"Self-learning" software could enable damaged aircraft to be flown to a safe landing NASA has completed evaluation flights of a revolutionary "self-learning" flight control system that could enable ...

Unfavorable aircraft-pilot coupling (APC) events are rare, unexpected, and unintended excursions in aircraft attitude and flight path caused by anomalous interactions between the aircraft and the ...

The tabs, invented by an engineering professor and flying enthusiast at Lehigh University, measure a few inches in length and weight. They rotate around an aluminum tube that is inserted into a ...
