VTOL Drones Aerodynamics Optimization
Why and how to optimize the aerodynamics of VTOL drones? Whether it is the Thales UAS100, the Wingtra Gen2, the SkyEye Tango, or many others, optimizing VTOL (Vertical Take-Off and Landing UAV) drones aerodynamics represents a major technological advance in the field of unmanned aircraft. It combines a capability for fast and long-distance flight with […]
Optimization of Modern Drone Performance
Technological innovation continues to grow, drones are taking an increasingly important place in our world. The global market will grow tenfold in 10 years, from $28 billion in 2021 to $260 billion in 2030. All industrial sectors are involved, from oversight missions to delivery logistics, from area mapping to military missions. Modern drones offer efficient […]
Developing the aerodynamics of motorcycles
The benefits of aerodynamics on motorcycles Aerodynamics is a very important science to understand the influence of air forces on the behaviour of any motorcycles and its rider. By applying the basic principles of aerodynamics to motorcycles, it is possible to achieve significant improvements in terms of performance and comfort. Drag reduction, for example, is […]
Improving the helmet aerodynamics
The perfectibility of the helmet aerodynamics Mitigating the inconvenience of air turbulence around helmets is a major challenge in helmet aerodynamics for bikers and high-speed users such as skiers, professional cyclists, and single-seater drivers. Indeed, these disadvantages, materialized by areas of detachment and recirculation of air on the surface of the helmet, cause discomfort, instability, and noise, […]
Optimizing the energy autonomy of the drones
Aerodynamics and energy management of aerial drones Optimizing the energy autonomy of the drones is a crucial issue for both civilian missions and military operations. The ability of a drone to travel long distances without recharging or refueling can determine whether a mission is successful or not. However, improving the energy consumption of drones and […]
