The next significant advancements in the aviation industry include remotely controlled unmanned flights utilizing neurobiofeedback for ground-based pilots and the analytical design of flow control devices. Key innovations discussed are active flow control systems, jet blown flaps, and inertia-based navigation systems. The potential for electric propulsion in light aircraft and drones is already being realized, with batteries providing one hour of flight time and fuel cells extending it to twelve hours. Additionally, advancements in dynamic airframe shapes and sonic boom silencing are crucial for the future of supersonic travel over populated areas.
PREREQUISITESAerospace engineers, aviation technology researchers, and professionals involved in aircraft design and propulsion systems will benefit from this discussion.
I don't think so - not in the civil aviation, at least. Too many risks involved with malfunctioning of said devices.viscousflow said:
