In the Clean Aviation project, Fraunhofer researchers teamed up with partners to develop a system that causes icy spots on ...

Does daylight saving impact flight times? How airlines calculate time changes.

Figuring out flight times can seem complicated, but here's how time zones and daylight saving impact travelers.

Saturday Citations: Test flight of the X-59; a confounding quantum calculation; the universe is not simulated

This week, researchers published LIGO findings that hint at the existence of second-generation black holes. Astronomers ...

NASA tests low-volume supersonic jet that could slash air travel time

NASA and Lockheed Martin debuted their first test run of a low-volume supersonic jet that’s expected to allow air passengers to travel faster than the speed of sound.   The X-59 aircraft on ...

Numerical Calculation for Transient and Sub-Transient Parameters of Dual-Excited Synchronous Generator Based on Time-Stepping Finite Element Model

Abstract: The Dual-Excited Synchronous Generator (DESG) has two sets of field windings on the rotor, thus it has better stability and reliability than the traditional synchronous generator. However, ...

Advanced flight emission calculator shows real cost of flying

Many carbon calculators used by airlines and travel companies are dramatically underestimating the real climate damage caused by air travel, according to new research from the University of Surrey.
