In fluid dynamics, the drag coefficient is a dimensionless quantity that is used to quantify the drag or resistance of an object in a fluid environment such as air or water. It is used in the drag ...

When we first saw the original Tesla Cybertruck, we quickly questioned the aerodynamics of its origami wedge shape. That pointy roof looked like a sure-fire turbulence generator, and turbulent flow is ...

Biomimetic drag reduction techniques harness natural principles observed in biological organisms to address complex challenges in fluid dynamics. Drawing inspiration from the microstructures of shark ...

Researchers show mechanics of how drag on a partially submerged object may be several times greater than drag on a fully submerged object made of the same material. One of the most common and ...

The Tesla Cybertruck’s unique design could hold more benefits than first appears. An independent analysis posted via a video this week suggests that beyond looking like something out of Blade Runner, ...
