Article #2 Simulation Education Series. Exploring how engineers might design a commercial space station accurately and cost-effectively using mechanical analysis techniques
The initial project for the digitalised development of control surfaces for future aircraft wings has now been successfully completed at the German Aerospace Center (Deutsches Zentrum für Luft- und Raumfahrt; DLR) Virtual Product House (VPH).
Learn why growing hardware teams slow down as they scale, and how aligned workflows, parallel collaboration, and real-time design visibility restore speed and momentum.
In this episode, we explore how the mechanics of bird wings are inspiring new approaches to prevent airplanes from stalling and learn how bio-mimetic designs from nature are paving the way for innovations in aviation, enhancing stability and safety for future flights.
Taking inspiration from bird feathers, Princeton engineers have found that adding rows of flaps to a remote-controlled aircraft’s wings improves flight performance and helps prevent stalling, a condition that can jeopardize a plane’s ability to stay aloft.
Humanity's drive to explore has taken us across the solar system, with astronaut boots, various landers and rovers' wheels exploring the surfaces of several different planetary bodies.
In space, maintenance isn't possible, so satellites must operate reliably for their entire mission. This makes fault detection, isolation, and recovery (FDIR) a critical requirement in satellite design.

The German Aerospace Center (DLR) has now successfully tested high temperature structures, advanced measurement techniques and design tools for the re-entry phase with the STORT (Schlüsseltechnologien für hochenergetische Rückkehrflüge von Trägerstufen) flight experiment.
The German Aerospace Center (Deutsches Zentrum für Luft- und Raumfahrt; DLR) is developing a new computer architecture that will provide On-Board Computers (OBCs) with more power as well as enabling them to repair themselves.
In this episode, we talk about how robotic dogs might be the next best astronauts as they are well-equipped to explore the Moon’s unforgiving terrain, and about a framework for launching swarms of robots into warehouses to get work done better, safer, and more efficiently.
Engineers at EPFL and the University of Geneva believe they hold the key to automated drone mapping. By combining artificial intelligence with a new algorithm, their method promises to considerably reduce the time and resources needed to accurately scan complex landscapes.
As a result of a constant increase in the number of flights, aircraft noise is becoming a major source of noise-induced annoyance. This article lists down some of the sources contributing to it and proposes possible solutions for mitigating the problem.
In this episode, we talk about how an app leveraging 3 sets of machine learning algorithms aims to reduce waste and emissions by creating 3D models of feet and the hoverfly inspired AI that will be keeping airfields safe from small drones via acoustic mapping and filtering.
Could drones provide a safe and effective alternative to sending out ships, helicopters and cranes in future, and could they take some of the pressure off of maintenance staff?
