The core areas of specialization for a team of aeronautical engineers include aerodynamics‚ thermodynamics‚ celestial mechanics‚ control systems‚ propulsion and electronics. These different fields of study is put together to form the basis of Aeronautical Engineering. Each member in a team of Aeronautical Engineers specializes in his/her

and flight system technologies‚ these being within NASA’s area of research responsibility” (p. 16). When one hears the name NASA‚ they only think about their involvement in space exploration‚ but NASA is also doing research and development in aerodynamics and aviation technology which led to better flight control and deicing systems (Hamilton‚ 2011‚ pp. 17-18). Although NASA is responsible for these technological advances‚ they have to report all findings to the FAA to get the changes incorporated

Solar car design Originally published on Solar Love. Generally speaking‚ I don’t think solar-powered cars are very practical. They are fun and do highlight how far we’ve come. They may help to advance certain electric car technologies and designs. However‚ except for certain niche situations (like a hospital car for rural Zimbabwe)‚ they have serious limitations. For one‚ solar panels aren’t cheap — risking their destruction or damage in a car accident doesn’t seem wise. Secondly‚ the sun

Imagine a time when being cool meant long hair‚ a slick car‚ and tickets to the weekend double feature at the drive-in. The 1960s made this dream the goal of teenage boys; near the end of the 2010s‚ if a person has similar things‚ they can still be considered cool‚ hip‚ and with the times‚ excluding the drive-in. Drive-ins are nearly extinct‚ so maybe just a normal movie. With its share of similarities‚ the 1960s did have profound differences in many categories. Some of these categories include

Some of the reasons for its collapse were that it was put in an area of Tacoma that was prone to high winds and the engineer used solid girders instead of open trusses to cut costs. Another issue that engineers later learned about was its lack of aerodynamics. With that said we will conduct a risk analysis of key factors from this project. In this case study the failure of the Tacoma Narrows Bridge was a combination of many factors‚ including design flaws. It used shallow plate girders to decrease
