Observation of protein interactions with individual DNA molecules allows one to measure kinetic and structural changes that are not easy to study using bulk biochemical techniques. In this ...

In the quest for greater efficiency of large transport aircraft, efforts to reduce wing drag through conventional aerodynamic tweaks have largely been exhausted, in the view of Airbus senior ...

I don't remember the aviation industry ever being as dynamic as it is today. Everywhere you look, people and companies are working on new aircraft designs, be they in the form of helicopters, VTOLs, ...

Boeing plans to reduce airframe drag on the 787 by standardising on a specific thickness of grey paint (pictured below) for the engine inlet which it says will preserve natural laminar flow over a ...

Vertical Laminar Flow Cabinets are self-contained laboratory workstations that are suitable for shielding samples from particle contamination. How does a Laminar Flow Cabinet work? The front face of ...

Ever seen a pitch that moves in a way no one can explain? That might be laminar flow—a rare aerodynamic phenomenon that can make a baseball defy expectations and completely fool hitters! Here’s what ...
