Family of airfoil shapes for rotating blades [PDF]

open access: yes, 1983
An airfoil which has particular application to the blade or blades of rotor aircraft such as helicopters and aircraft propellers is described. The airfoil thickness distribution and camber are shaped to maintain a near zero pitching moment coefficient ...

A Janus‐Like Bio‐Inspired Strategy for 3D‐Printed Bimetallic Metamaterials with Excellent Thermal‐Protection and Load Bearing Capacity

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
A Janus‐like bio‐inspired strategy is proposed for integrally 3D‐printed bimetallic metamaterials. Inspired by shell bilayers, a heat‐resistant AlSiFeMnNiMg alloy and a SiC‐reinforced AlSi10Mg with different SiC volume fractions are arranged as an architected pair.

Acoustic mode detection in an engine nacelle with a scaled rig fan

open access: yesAdvances in Aerodynamics
Acquiring acoustic modes with high quality data in large-scale nacelles is quite challenging in the engine industry because of the complex configuration, high flow speed, tremendous number of acoustic modes, and some other extraordinary interference.

Thermally Programmable Two‐Port Non‐Hermitian Acoustic Metastructure for Broadband and Direction‐Dependent Absorption

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
A thermally programmable two‐port non‐Hermitian acoustic metastructure is presented, where temperature acts as a non‐geometric tuning variable. Thermal modulation reconfigures impedance matching and loss‐leakage coupling, enabling exceptional‐point driven, broadband, and direction‐dependent sound absorption without requiring geometric reconfiguration ...

Magnetic heading reference [PDF]

open access: yes, 1977
This invention employs a magnetometer as a magnetic heading reference for a vehicle such as a small aircraft. The magnetometer is mounted on a directional dial in the aircraft in the vicinity of the pilot such that it is free to turn with the dial about ...

Graphene‐Skinned Alumina Fiber: Continuously Scalable Fabrication and Its Electrothermal Application in Fiber‐Reinforced Polymer Composites

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Graphene‐skinned alumina fiber (GAF) is a new composite with graphene conformally grown on individual alumina fibers via chemical vapor deposition (CVD). GAF's dynamic, continuous and scalable production is achieved by using a home‐made roll‐to‐roll (RTR) CVD system featuring integrated degumming and growth chambers. GAF possesses tunable conductivity,

Wingtip vortex turbine [PDF]

open access: yes, 1990
A means for extracting rotational energy from the vortex created at aircraft wing tips which consists of a turbine with blades located in the crossflow of the vortex and attached downstream of the wingtip. The turbine has blades attached to a core.

Scalable Laser Processing Enables Transparent, Accretion Scale‐Independent, Ice‐Shedding Glass

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
We demonstrate a scalable laser‐based method to create wave‐like micro‐patterns on glass surfaces that counter the conventional view that roughness increases ice adhesion. These patterns direct crack propagation at the ice–glass interface, enabling low‐force, multi‐directional ice detachment while maintaining substrate transparency. A theoretical model
