Electric hydrofoils flying above our waters are becoming more common. Many pioneers of the sport in Hawaiʻi started out surfing human-powered hydrofoils at regular surf breaks. Paul McDonnell stands ...

Xfoil.jl is a Julia wrapper for a Mark Drela's 2D airfoil panel code, XFOIL, with the GUI features removed. This code actually wraps two versions of Mark Drela's XFOIL code, one of which may be used ...

Abstract: A new high altitude propeller is analyzed and designed in this paper to be used on the stratospheric aircraft propulsion system. Two more appropriate approaches to investigate the ...

Uncertainty quantification (UQ) has become more critical in aerospace engineering due to the growing dependence on computational tools for design optimization and performance analyses of aerospace ...

HONOLULU (KHON2) — A new kind of surfboard is changing how people in Hawaiʻi ride waves, and it doesn’t need waves at all. It’s an innovation that’s opening avenues to access surfing that have not ...

If airplane wings have moveable control surfaces, why don't the wings of hydrofoiling boards? Well, the XFoil 2 does, resulting in what is said to be a much smoother and stabler ride than anything ...

Abstract: The development of high-performance wind turbine blade airfoil families is an important research topic in wind power generation technology. Using the NACA63 series airfoil as the initial ...
