Winds of Change – A Proposal to Reconstruct Wind Flows for Urban Air Mobility
Predicting wind flows for UAM is a challenge to the safe integration of uncrewed aircraft systems into the national airspace. One researcher proposes a solution using a computational fluid dynamics (CFD), Reynolds-average Navier Stokes (RANS) model with current real-world observation.
Does the Public Really Want Air Taxis?
People have wildly different views on the future of urban air mobility (UAM). Policymakers and transport operators need to pay attention.
UAM: If We Build It, Will You Come? Will You Pay?
The technology behind air taxis may be ahead of people’s willingness to use them.
AI Has Come for Your Aircraft
You may have noticed that our lives — our digital lives and, by extension, practically every aspect of our offline lives — are about to undergo a radical transformation not seen since the advent of the internet. That transformation is being powered by artificial intelligence (AI). AI is computers supercomputing and processing data faster and…
