The Institute of Aerodynamics and Flow Technology leads the subproject and will investigate selected technologies (load alleviation, flutter suppression, "health"/load monitoring, efficient systems, ...

High aspect ratio reduces induced drag for fuel-efficient, long-distance flying. Low aspect ratio enhances maneuverability in combat but increases fuel consumption. Wing aspect ratios impact ...

Classical flight physics technologies in propulsion, structures and aerodynamics are key factors for more efficient aircraft with significantly reduced climate impact, but also in terms of noise ...
