Aspiring Aerospace Engineer | Passionate About Space, Time Travel, and Quantum Physics | Connecting Fantasy to Facts to Shape the Future
Our first activity in LPU of B.Tech Aerospace Engineering Recorded time with obstacle: 19.97 Approx time without the obstacle: 21.74 **Parachute-Making Workshop: An Exploration of Creativity and Engineering** Our inaugural parachute-making activity represented a thrilling experience, creativity, collaboration, and practical learning. Students united to design and construct functional parachutes using basic materials. The objective was to develop a parachute capable of safely delivering a small payload from a considerable height. Throughout the project, we examined the concepts of aerodynamics, drag, and material science, while welcoming trial and error to enhance our designs. The session not only improved our problem-solving capabilities but also nurtured a spirit of teamwork and innovation. It served as an engaging and instructive approach to applying theoretical knowledge to a practical challenge.

🔊✈️ Unravelling the Noise: Unlocking the Secrets of Futuristic Aircraft 🌟🔍 Researchers at the University of Bristol have peeled back the layers of mystery surrounding the distinctive noise emitted by futuristic aircraft equipped with embedded engines aimed at conserving energy. 🛫🎶 In a ground-breaking study published in the Journal of Fluid Mechanics, led by Feroz Ahmed from Bristol’s School of Civil, Aerospace, and Design Engineering, the team delved into the depths of these engines, known as boundary layer ingesting (BLI), to decipher the mechanics behind the noise they produce. 📚🔬 Utilizing the University's National Aeroacoustic Wind Tunnel Facility, the researchers embarked on a journey to uncover the intricate processes by which noise is generated and propagated from these cutting-edge engines. 🌀💡 Their findings not only shed light on the previously enigmatic source of noise from BLI engines but also pave the way for innovations in aircraft design and noise reduction strategies. 🌐🔧 At Risbridger, we applaud the pioneering work of the University of Bristol's researchers, as they continue to push the boundaries of aerospace engineering and shape the future of flight. 🚀🌟 #AerospaceInnovation #FutureOfFlight #EngineeringBreakthroughs #NoiseReduction #UniversityOfBristol

Hybrid Rocket System Presentation Mechanical Engineering Senior Steven Dipani and Professor Dustin Birch recently represented Weber State at the University Consortium for Applied Hypersonics Forum 2024 in Alexandria, Virginia. Steven presented at the student poster section on behalf of Dr. Birch’s research team currently working to develop a hybrid rocket system used to evaluate high-temperature materials. The high-temperature materials testbed is sponsored by the WSU College of Engineering, Applied Science, and Technology as well as the Miller Advanced Research & Solutions (MARS) center. Aerospace vehicles that fly at hypersonic velocities (Mach Numbers greater than 5) experience very hot air temperatures around the vehicle due to atmospheric friction. These high temperatures require advanced materials to allow the vehicle to survive in that extreme environment. This important research is working to bring these advanced material systems to operational maturity.

Let's take a quiz on crash energy absorbers: As you may know, both aircraft and automobiles are designed for specific crash load cases to provide occupant safety through dedicated crash energy absorbing structures. Let's imagine two thin-walled cylinders of the same geometry (200 mm length, 50 mm diameter, 1.5 mm wall thickness) in an axial crushing test as seen in the video below: One is made of an aerospace aluminium alloy, the other is made of carbon fibre composite material (CF/PAEK). The failure mechanisms are completely different: plasticity vs. fragmentation. Which of the two do you think is capable of absorbing much more energy, with a specific energy absorption (SEA) capability three times higher than the other one? (P.S: If you want to learn more about this, Professor Sebastian Heimbs of the IFL - Institute of Aircraft Design & Lightweight Structures is offering a new lecture series entitled "Crash and Impact Dynamics of Lightweight Structures" at Technische Universität Braunschweig starting this winter semester) #crash #crashabsorber #compositecrushing #energyabsorption #dynamictesting #crashworthiness

Most Engineering Students don't take this seriously. But Projects are of utmost priority. They provide hands-on experience, showcase your skills, and set you apart in a competitive field like aerospace engineering. And for we who didn't study Aerospace Engineering, sometimes, it's difficult to get opportunities for Space themed projects, and I was greatly affected by this in Uni. But I'm glad to tell you that I'm working on my very first small Airplane design and building with a number of Aerospace Undergraduates and it's been an experience of research and research and calculations.. Dearest AeroLovelies, Whether it's building a drone, designing a rocket propulsion system, or crafting a mini-satellite, dive into projects wholeheartedly. They'll not only expand your knowledge but also open doors to exciting opportunities in the aerospace industry. #aerospace #aerospaceengineering #aerospacewithannie

It is frustrating when the complexity of aerospace engineering is oversimplified. While the four fundamental forces (lift, weight, thrust, and drag) are crucial, they are just the beginning. True industry readiness requires a deeper understanding of many factors, including aerodynamics, structural mechanics, propulsion systems, control theory, and avionics, among others. For more comprehensive preparation, hands-on experience, case studies, advanced simulations, and exposure to real-world problems are essential. Perhaps suggesting or seeking supplementary learning resources, workshops, or industry projects could bridge the gap.
