Active Aeroelastic Wing - Improve Aircraft Maneuverability at Transonic and Supersonic Speeds

Fouad Sabry

Summary

What Is Active Aeroelastic Wing
 
The X-53 Active Aeroelastic Wing (AAW) development program is an American research project that has been completed. This project was carried out jointly by the Air Force Research Laboratory (AFRL), Boeing Phantom Works, and NASA's Dryden Flight Research Center. At NASA's Dryden Flight Research Center, the technology was flight tested on a modified McDonnell Douglas F/A-18 Hornet. Active Aeroelastic Wing Technology is a technology that blends the aerodynamics, controls, and structure of a wing in order to harness and regulate the aeroelastic twist that a wing experiences under dynamic stresses and high speeds. The use of multiple leading and trailing edge controls, such as "aerodynamic tabs," enables subtle amounts of aeroelastic twist to be controlled to provide large amounts of wing control power, while simultaneously minimizing maneuver air loads under high wing strain conditions or aerodynamic drag under low wing strain conditions. This is accomplished while maintaining a balance between the two extremes of wing strain conditions. This operation served as the very first demonstration of AAW technology on a large scale.

The Shocking Truth about...

Zoey Fraisers

The world of financial investments is vast and often overwhelming, but understanding its basic principles can be empowering for anyone looking to secure their financial future. At its core, investing is about putting your money to work with the goal of growing it over time. Whether you’re considering stocks, bonds, real estate, or other investment vehicles, the underlying principle remains the same: make informed decisions that will yield positive returns over the long term. 
  
The history of financial investments dates back centuries, but the modern investment world we know today took shape in the last few hundred years. Early investments were largely driven by the needs of monarchs and merchants, who sought funding for exploration, infrastructure, and trade. Today, financial markets have grown into complex systems that drive global economies, influencing everything from the price of everyday goods to government policies. 
  
As an investor, it’s crucial to grasp the basic concepts that govern these markets. Investment decisions are influenced by factors such as risk, market trends, and economic cycles. However, risk is often misunderstood. It’s not simply about avoiding potential losses—it’s about assessing and managing risk to make decisions that align with your financial goals. The best investors know how to balance risk with reward and diversify their portfolios to protect themselves from market volatility.

The Second Estate - How the Tax...

Ray D. Madoff

A revelatory book that lifts the curtain on America’s most consequential public deception: how the rich get richer using tools the government gave them.

Amid conflicting narratives about the drivers of wealth and inequality in the United States, one constant hovers in the background: the US tax code. No political force has been more consequential—or more utterly opaque—than the 7,000-page document that details who pays what in American society and government. Most of us have a sense that it’s an unfair system. But does anyone know exactly how it’s unfair?

Legal scholar Ray D. Madoff knows. In The Second Estate, she offers an unprecedented look behind the scenes of America’s byzantine system of taxation, laying bare not only its capacity to consolidate wealth but also the mechanisms by which it has created two fundamentally separate American societies: the working Americans who pay and the ultra-rich who benefit.

This is not a story of offshore accounts or secret tax havens. In The Second Estate, Madoff shows that the US system itself has, over time, been stripped and reconstituted such that it now offers a series of secret paths, hidden in plain sight, for wealthy people in the know to avoid taxation altogether. Through the strategic avoidance of traditional income, leveraging of investments and debt, and exploitation of rules designed to promote charitable giving, America’s wealthy do more than just pay less than their share; they remove themselves from the tax system entirely. Wealth becomes its own sovereign state, and the living is surprisingly—and maddeningly—cheap.
