Engineering experts from FIU and Lehigh University are using an innovative part-physical, part-computational testing method known as real-time cyber-physical modeling to get a full picture of how ...

Wind-tunnel testing is crucial for Formula 1 teams to study and optimize a car's aerodynamics. Aerodynamics have become vital as regulations have emphasized downforce and airflow. This article is part ...

Despite advances in computational fluid dynamics modeling, physical testing of cars in wind tunnels remains valuable for carmakers. That's why Mercedes opened the Sindelfingen wind tunnel in 2013, and ...

Wonder no moreYou hear the advice all the time from the "know-it-alls" in racing (yes, that applies to us, too): No matter how small your track or how slow your car, good aerodynamic practices can ...

Wind tunnels are a mainstay in automotive engineering, but what if instead of simulating the car moving down the road, you could drive it down the road? That’s the purpose of the new Catesby Tunnel in ...

Before jets and other aircraft are cleared to soar across the sky, some of their test models go through Florida State University's Polysonic Wind Tunnel. “Anything that flies needs to be tested on ...

Honda spent $124 million for its new facility with a 6700-hp 5-megawatt electric motor that can generate winds up to 193 miles per hour. The wind tunnel is primarily for Honda, Acura, and Honda Racing ...

A University of Tennessee team secured funding for a $17.8 million grant from the U.S. Air Force to create a wind tunnel that can subject samples of materials like high-temperature ceramics to ...
