  • Be irrational and celebrate Pi Day

    Mark the day by taking some pi-related quizzes. And have some pie.

  • Lighter-than-air drones: From blimps to balloons

    Any drone application that prioritizes low-noise, energy efficiency, high range, high portability or increased payloads can benefit from an LTA UAV.

  • Vacuum-microwave toll manufacturing facility launched by EnWave

    REVworx is reportedly the first large-scale vacuum-microwave toll processing facility in North America that offers drying services for third-parties.

  • Prepare to hinder hackers in the picoCTF cybersecurity competition

    Anyone aged 13 and up is invited to reverse-engineer, break, hack, decrypt and think creatively and critically to solve challenges and capture digital flags.

  • Acopian donation shifts Lafayette Motorsports into higher gear

    The grant supports a club format to give more students the opportunity to work on an interdisciplinary team and learn about sustainable engineering and transportation.

  • A flapping-wing drone inspired by birds

    When compared to fixed and rotary wing drones, ornithopters offer advantages in energy, range and maneuverability - that is, if designs can be perfected.

  • Video: New flow-hole forming screw extends application scope

    The flow-hole-forming screw is designed for higher-strength steel sheets and thicker sheet combinations.

  • Custom air knives for unique applications

    Air knives can be tailored for diverse blowoff, cooling, cleaning and drying applications.

  • Aerodynamics of multirotor drones

    Multirotor drones present design challenges related to stability and flight control, but flexibility and ease of use means that these aerodynamic challenges are worth the additional engineering.

  • Mapping applications for fixed-wing drones

    Fixed-wing drones have advantages over quadcopters in applications that do not need ultra-high-resolution data or require covering exceptionally large areas.
