Abstract:

This article highlights that for centuries although space was the realm of wonder and fascination, of fiction and children’s bedtime stories, of shooting balls of fire and faraway heavenly bodies; still it was less than 50 years ago that things began to change in earnest. Enormous engineering resources were invested in the US space program during the 1960s. By the end of the decade, engineers had gained a sufficient level of knowledge about chemical rockets and storable propellants and turned their attention to other technologies, such as noise control and advanced computer systems.

Abstract:

The beginnings of Spanish aeronautics are linked to the biography of Emilio Herrera, a leading figure among the pioneers of aviation in Spain. Despite the research that has been done on him, his role in the genesis of aeronautical engineering as an area of knowledge with its own identity remained to be explored. Herrera’s work in this field took place at the same time as the birth and growth of this speciality and was oriented —as the subsequent evolution of the decisions he had taken showed— in the right direction. His management work in the Aerodynamic Laboratory, in the commission for the h

Abstract:

The aeronautical industry is a powerful force for progress in our modern global society. Industrial activities in this industry started to accelerate in the beginning of the 20th century, and the number of aircraft in airspace for civil purposes started increasing. Consequently, the industry and the personnel associated with aircraft were required to be regulated to ensure the safety and reliability of the product. Currently, various categories of personnel related to operations, airworthiness, and maintenance of aircraft are licensed by statute. Government authorities consider registration or

Abstract:

In 1943, with the world still at war, a great discussion on the future of aeronautical education was held by the Royal Aeronautical Society. Not only would the war years, however many were still to come, demand more well-qualified aeronautical engineers, but the longed for peace years, with engineers turning swords into ploughshares, would want more. The discussion was in two parts. One took place on 25 June and the other on 23 July. Many of the leading figures in British aeronautics took part and in the chair on both occasions was Dr Roxbee Cox, a vice-president of the society. The discussion

In this article, Muireann Maguire examines the cultural construction of the trope of the engineer-inventor in Russia during the 1920s and 1930s, focusing on the changing representation of this archetype in three science fiction novels by Aleksei Tolstoi: Aelita (1922-23), Soiuzpiati (The Gang of Five, 1925), and Giperboloid inzhenera Garina (Engineer Garin's Death Ray, 1925-26). Tolstoi's fiction portrays engineers as misguided and self-centred at best and as amoral, megalomaniacal, and irredeemably un-Soviet at worst. This increasingly negative portrayal of the engineers in these novels, and

Mathematical principles are essential for understanding and applying the core concepts of aerodynamics, structural integrity, and performance optimization. In aerodynamics, mathematics helps model airflow, predict lift and drag forces, and enhance the efficiency of propulsion systems. Structural analysis relies on mathematical frameworks to assess the strength and stability of aircraft materials, ensuring safety and durability. Additionally, m

In forging process, geometric design of initial billet and tools is very important. Traditionally, engineers use their knowledge and experience to design and optimize the geometric model of forging process by using trial-and-error methods. Such methods are time consuming and cost expensive. It is therefore interesting to design an automatic tools builder based on optimization methodology coupled with virtual finite element simulations, thus helping engineers to improve products and reduce cost. In this article we describe a meta-model based multi-objective optimization methodology for forging

Abstract:

Abstract Within the European project NACRE (New Aircraft Concept REsearch), a team of research centres and universities focuses on the assessment of a test facility in the form of a flying platform. The goal of this Innovative Evaluation Platform (IEP) is to offer engineers a new tool to investigate areas of interest during the early design phases of advanced aeronautical systems. After an initial phase during which the potential benefits of such a platform have been demonstrated, the go-ahead for the IEP design and manufacturing has been given. In this second phase, a lot of attention has bee

Abstract:

I must start by thanking the Royal Aeronautical Society for the invitation to present this 27th Lanchester Memorial Lecture. It is an honour and a privilege to follow in the footsteps of the distinguished scientists and engineers who have given the first 26 lectures in this series. These lectures have included many outstanding reviews of a wide range of different topics and I am very conscious that they have set a standard that I, for my part, will find difficult to match. I hope, however, that by choosing a topic that has only been mentioned in passing in just a few of the previous lectures,

Abstract:

Abstract Reducing the environmental footprint of commercial aviation to a manageable level, is a formidable challenge for the whole aeronautical community. In particular, new aircraft configurations could drastically reduce the environmental footprint. Training of engineers in Overall Aircraft Design (OAD) is, therefore, an essential step to be considered in order to take environmental issues into account from the preliminary design phase. ONERA and ISAE-SUPAERO have developed FAST-OAD (Future Aircraft Sizing Tool – Overall Aircraft Design), an open source platform for the analysis, sizing and

Abstract:

Abstract: Recently a new material has been emerged with variation of material properties particularly across the thickness. Such class of materials is called functionally graded materials. The concept of functionally graded material was proposed in 1984 by materials scientists as a means of preparing thermal barrier materials. Since then functionally graded materials are being increasingly used in the aeronautical and aerospace industry as well as in other fields of modern technology. This paper presents a comprehensive review of the various methods used to study the static and dynamic behavio

Abstract:

Serious games for education are becoming increasing popular. Interactive fiction games are some of the most popular in app stores and are also beginning to be heavily used in education to teach analysis and decision-making. Noting that it is difficult for systems engineers to experience all necessary situations which prepare them for the role of a chief engineer, in this paper, we explore the use of interactive fiction serious games to impart systems engineering experience and to teach systems engineering principles. The results of a cognitive viability, qualitative viability, and replayabilit

SUMMARYThe 150th anniversary of the Royal Aeronautical Society has seen Rolls-Royce become a global player in aerospace and a champion of British industry. Its products vary from the nimble RR300, powering two-seater helicopters, all the way to the 97,000-pound thrust Trent XWB, powering future variants of the Airbus A350, and the MT30, which provides the propulsion for the Royal Navy's new Queen Elizabeth class aircraft carriers. It has built this range of products derived from the vision and innovation of its talented engineers, spurred on by the guiding principles provided by Henry Royce. T

Abstract:

AbstractIn the coming century, the impact of air travel on the environment will become an increasingly powerful influence on aircraft design. Unless the impact per passenger kilometre can be reduced substantially relative to today’s levels, environmental factors will increasingly limit the expansion of air travel and the social benefits that it brings. The three main impacts are noise, air pollution around airports and changes to atmospheric composition and climate as a result of aircraft emissions at altitude. The lecture will review the work done within the Air Travel – greener by Design pro
