Its expertise spans everything from the conceptual and preliminary design of complete aircraft configurations, taking all disciplines into account, through to the detailed aerodynamic design of wings ...
that's not the only way to design a plane. Northrop Grumman's B-2 Spirit and B-21 Raider are examples of flying-wing designs, and they weren't new when those strategic bombers were created.
Aeroelasticity is a critical field of study in aerospace engineering that examines the interaction between aerodynamic forces and structural flexibility in aircraft wings. As aircraft designs ...
Boeing has noted that with the high wing mounting of the truss-braced design, such aircraft “could eventually accommodate advanced propulsion systems that are limited by a lack of underwing ...
