Four industry and academic teams will split $16.5 million for additional research into ideas for aircraft. Under the new contracts, the teams will develop concepts and models that can be tested in computer simulations, laboratories and wind tunnels. The work is funded by NASA’s Aeronautics Research Mission Directorate in Washington. The agency’s Fundamental Aeronautics Program is focused on developing technology that will enable aircraft to meet national goals for reduced fuel consumption, emissions and noise. The program’s Subsonic Fixed Wing Project oversees the work at the agency’s Glenn Research Center in Cleveland and Langley Research Center in Virginia. Learn more from NASA.
