Russian researchers are refining the wing design for a proposed short-haul aircraft with overwing-mounted engines, to increase laminar flow. Initial models of the experimental aircraft design ...

University of Iowa researchers have reported a key advance in the ease of flow and maneuverability for underwater vehicles.

The Vortex wind generator is a completely different type of wind turbine design. It has no spinning blades—or any moving parts to wear out at all—and looks like a ginormous straw that ...

University of New South Wales researchers have created vortex generators that can reportedly reduce the operating solar module temperature by up to 2.5 C. They built two different prototypes ...

The efficient, compact and low-cost vortex beam generators could help enhance the capacity and reliability of future wireless systems.

Intriguingly, unlike conventional vortex generators, the KTH system, which has been developed in collaboration with truck manufacturer Scania, is entirely electronic. The system uses plasma actuators ...
