Circulation control is an innovative aerodynamic technique that utilises the injection of fluid along a specially contoured surface to modify the local boundary layer, thereby enhancing lift and ...

Circulation control wing (CCW) technology has been in the research and development phase for over sixty years with a minimal amount of practical applications to subsonic transport aircraft. The ...

Technology developed for the Circulation Control Wing high-lift system has been extended to augment lift by entraining and redirecting engine thrust. Ejecting a thin jet sheet tangentially over a ...

Rail transportation is costly to operate and requires heavy fixed-capital investment in track construction and maintenance. As demand grows, rail system operators can invest in network expansion by ...
