Active flutter suppression is an increasingly critical field in aeronautical engineering, addressing the challenges posed by the dynamic aeroelastic interactions in modern flexible aircraft. As ...

The airliner you board in the future could look a lot different from today's, with longer, thinner wings that provide a ...

NASA and Boeing are testing longer, thinner wings that can provide a smoother plane ride while saving fuel. It’s claimed that ...

Long, narrow wings are intended to reduce fuel consumption and increase comfort in aircraft. However, wing flutter must be ...

Making the wings on passenger jets thinner and longer can go a long way toward reducing drag and making them more efficient, but they vibrate like crazy. Engineers at NASA and Boeing are now tackling ...

A team of international researchers has succeeded in overcoming one of the greatest challenges in aviation. They have actively suppressed the dreaded phenomenon of flutter with a sophisticated control ...

Boeing passed a major milestone today in the 787 Dreamliner program. Today's flight test of airframe ZA001, the first 787 to fly back in December, marks the end of flutter testing for the airplane.

Moscow-based Central Aerohydrodynamic Institute (TsAGI) has completed flutter tests on the Sukhoi Superjet 100 ( SSJ100) extended range aircraft, which has a new wing with improved structure.

Boeing has completed aeroelastic flutter testing and ground effects testing with its first two 787 test aircraft. This clears the way for the formal US Federal Aviation Administration certification ...

Two separate incidents within a span of 10 minutes one with a JetLite aircraft and another with an Air India limousine bus triggered hectic activity at the Kolkata airport on Wednesday evening.
