High-fidelity simulations demonstrate how the number of blades affects the wakes of rim-driven thrusters.

German researchers are launching a new project to tackle one of the ocean’s loudest problems. Ship propellers create massive noise that disrupts marine life. This interference breaks the communication ...

At the very crux of engineering is the desire to problem-solve, optimize, and squeeze out every bit of efficiency possible from the system being built. Aircraft design and aeronautical engineering ...

Could the secret to transforming propeller design lie in the dimples of a golf ball? It might sound far-fetched, but the same aerodynamic principles that allow a golf ball to soar farther and faster ...
