THE way a dragonfly remains stable in flight is being mimicked to develop micro wind turbines that can withstand gale-force winds. Micro wind turbines have to work well in light winds but must avoid ...

The general focus on improving air travel usually involves faster, safer, lighter, and more fuel-efficient aircraft. But another safety concern is disease transmission because the airtight flying ...

By studying how grasshoppers glide and fold their wings, researchers are finding new ways to extend flight time for ...

In the pursuit of higher energy density lithium-ion batteries (LIBs), researchers are constantly exploring innovative solutions to enhance the performance of SiOx-based anodes. A recent article ...

Scientists undertook a study of dragonfly wings in order to better understand the relationship between a corrugated wing structure and vortex motions. They discovered that corrugated wings exhibit ...
