COMSOL Multiphysics version 5.1 supports the creation of multiphysics models and simulations as well as the building and sharing of easy-to-use simulation apps.

Multiphysics transforms modeling and simulation

Munro F-150 Lightning teardown video

Dodge claims scores of world-firsts and world records with the outlandishly-powered 2018 Challenger SRT Demon musclecar.

“One Ford," the technological and commercial philosophy the company is energetically pursuing to minimize the need for market-specific vehicle modifications. The Mustang, now on sale in the U.K. and Europe, proves the system works.

It's a VW Microbus for future generations, an electric van capable of fully autonomous driving. But at this point, it's only a concept.

An ultralight door architecture nets a 42.5% weight savings compared to a current production door, and that's enough to put this lightweight concept, developed via collaboration, in an enviable position.

Plenty has changed with Toyota's eighth-generation midsize sedan including new platform and powertrains that deliver a claimed 40% BTE.

Kia's racy 2018 Stinger is the brand's first rear-drive and AWD sedan.

Toyota's corporate flagship sedan ups the power and luxury quotient for its fifth-generation iteration with an all-new V6, a 10-speed automatic and available Shiatsu massage for front and rear seats.

The driver's experience of being in a vehicle, but not driving, means opportunities for working or relaxing, as envisioned in a vehicle cabin concept from the world's largest supplier of automotive interiors.

Fuel efficiency—and the economic and ecological benefits associated with it—continues to be the white rabbit of the global aviation industry. While engine builders look toward composites and electrification, and airframe designers toward lightweighting and aerodynamics, engineers at NASA’s Glenn Research Center recently completed testing of a novel concept: the boundary layer ingesting propulsor.

With the harrowing approach and landing complete, InSight will commence on a two-year mission to study the deep interior of Mars to learn how all celestial bodies with rocky surfaces, including Earth and the Moon, formed.

AeroVironment revealed its critical role in collaborating with NASA JPL to build the “Mars Helicopter” for NASA’s Mars Exploration Program. Program officials plan to have the Mars Helicopter flying on Mars in less than three years.

NASA officials in Washington continue to invest in private-public partnerships to help foster commercial space activity with the selection of 13 companies to study the future of commercial human spaceflight in low Earth orbit (LEO), including long-range opportunities for the International Space Station (ISS).

An amended NASA budget for fiscal year 2020 would add $1.6 billion to a $21 billion initial budget request and fund deep space exploration, science, and technology initiatives. An acquisition approach to various projects would present significant opportunities for commercial partners and, likely, the entire aerospace supply chain.

Aerospace engineers at NASA Langley Research Center in Hampton, Virginia, working on the NASA X-59 Quiet SuperSonic Technology (QueSST) aircraft in collaboration with Lockheed Martin engineers sought a safety-critical compute application programming interface (API) that supports safety certifications and powerful graphics and compute capabilities. They chose the VkCore SC safety-critical Vulkan driver from Core Avionics & Industrial Inc. (CoreAVI) in Tampa, Fla., for deployment into the X-59 in concert with the VxWorks 7 real-time operating system (RTOS) from Wind River, a provider of embedded software for intelligent connected systems and part of Intel Corp., in Alameda, Calif.

The test was conducted to better understand the dynamic forces on an aircraft and its passengers during a crash landing. Findings form the event will support a new FAA performance-based rule that will simplify aircraft certification by eliminating or minimizing the use of special conditions.

NASA has expanded its use of Exa's PowerFLOW software for the simulation of concepts to reduce aircraft noise within NASA's Environmentally Responsible Aviation project.

NASA officials are announcing the availability of eight disruptive NASA materials and coatings technologies ready for commercialization. NASA officials are looking for companies interested in using the organization’s high-temperature materials and coatings, including those designed to withstand high temperatures, to improve existing products or introduce new ones.
