The force coefficients generated by the wing are «about two to three times greater than a static
airfoil wing used for large airplanes,» said Kamal Viswanath, a co-author who was a graduate research assistant working with Tafti when the work was performed and is now a research engineer at the U.S. Naval Research Lab's Laboratories for Computational Physics and Fluid Dynamics.

Inflatable
airfoil A study for a lightweight
airfoil, or
wing.
Do you know that for an
airfoil lift, the air across the top of a conventional
airfoil experiences constricted flow lines and increased air speed relative to the
wing.
Shape of main
wings, namely
airfoil, produces lift force, thanks to aerodynamic interaction with air, and achieves commensurate energy efficiency.
Such high - efficiency energy conversion dictates the use of lift - type turbine blades, similar to airplane
wings, of twisted and tapered
airfoil shapes.
The
airfoil — that web of fabric between the legs of a
wing - suited birdman — sometimes provides lift but mostly delays the fall.
Among aerodynamically lifted aircraft, most fall in the category of fixed -
wing aircraft, where horizontal
airfoils produce lift, by profiting from airflow patterns determined by Bernoulli's equation and, to some extent, the Coanda effect.
One of the subjects they gently froze in time is the common green darner, a voracious and speedy predator whose
wing veins serve as
airfoils.
Hotz explains that the
wing's «elastic
airfoil can morph continuously to reduce drag, increase stall angle, and reduce vibration control flutter.»

airfoils to help keep his racers in touch with terra firma.
Its active rear
wing works both as an
airfoil and an air brake.
At the rear NOVITEC offers a few options when it comes to a rear
wing, either you put three small sections of carbon fiber onto the original duck tail style rear section, or you opt for the high rear
wing which is available in a single
airfoil or as a double
wing, just like on the Aventador.
All GTC Series
wings feature an aerodynamic 3D designed
airfoil shape to obtain the optimal balance of downforce.
The
airfoil shape of the
wing causes air to move faster over the top of the
wing than below, resulting in an upward lift from the slower moving air beneath the
wing.
