Maybe you’ve seen it: three lanes of midsize crossovers that could trade badges and nobody would notice. Those shapes are dictated by interior space, powertrain packaging, federal regulations, and ...

Cars are getting bigger and heavier, but, thanks to government regulation and the increasing rarity of dinosaur based fuel, carmakers have to ensure that each generation of cars is more efficient. New ...

In nature, the most aerodynamic shape is that of a drop of water, which has a coefficient of drag (Cd) of 0.05. Unfortunately, this is not a practical shape for a vehicle. An object's Cd, or how much ...

From smoke trails and wind tunnels to CFD and AI, why car aerodynamics evolved into a digital-first engineering discipline. Early automotive aerodynamics relied on wind tunnels and visual tools like ...

Develop best-practice skills in aerodynamics analysis. Aerodynamics, or the fluid dynamics of gases, deals with the flows observed in a wide range of transportation systems, such as airplanes, cars ...

AERODYNAMICS have preoccupied bicycle designers since the early part of this century. The most advanced bicycles today are deployed in track racing. The recently unveiled SB II, or Superbike II, has a ...

Aerodynamics has become a pivotal element in the quest for racing dominance, influencing not only the speed but also the handling and efficiency of racing vehicles. Understanding how aerodynamic ...

All you need to know about F1's active aerodynamics in the 2026 season (Images from X/@F1 and Getty Images) F1 will bid goodbye to the Drag Reduction System (DRS) in 2026. The concept of a movable ...

Automotive aerodynamics is the study of the aerodynamics of road vehicles. The main concerns of automotive aerodynamics are reducing drag, reducing wind noise, and preventing undesired lift forces at ...

Propel your career forward with an accredited graduate certificate. The Aerodynamics Certificate is taught on-campus and online by world experts in the field, all faculty in the Department of ...
