This experimental morphing wing, developed by researchers at the National University of Singapore, uses Macro Fiber Composite (MFC) piezoelectric actuators integrated beneath its composite skin. The actuators modify the wing's camber, allowing the airfoil to adopt different aerodynamic profiles without conventional hinged flaps. Instead of deflecting a discrete control...

Great simulation of the Ferrari Döner wing posted on LinkedIn by Dominik Bolasko. There are still some irregularities in this simulation, like the wing profiles being different than the actual Döner wing, but it looks to be one of the more accurate sims I have seen so far. One very interesting aspect of this simulation is the magnitude of the flow field disruption from the intermediate sail position. All DRS flaps naturally have a hysteresis with respect to flow recovery and attachment on flap closure. Hysteresis, in the simplest terms, is the difference in the value you get from the same device in one setting compared to another. In this case what we are looking at is the downforce the wing give you before opening, and after opening. So why would you have hysteresis? Well the flow will take some time to recover snd reattach after a big geometry change bringing back the full load (downforce) to the rear of the car for the braking zone. This exists for all cars that have a flap geometry change like this. However, the magnitude of the flow disruption can further delay this recovery causing the car to not re-establish the full load potential in the first phase of braking. So, I could certainly believe that the hysteresis for this type of wing would be greater than that of a conventional flap because of how much flow disturbance you have from that intermediate sail position. Meaning the rear of the Ferrari on initial braking could have some nervousness as the flow takes more time to re-attach and recover the load on the rear wing. In fact, this is exactly what Dominik found in his simulations (image 2). I did speak with someone with a team, and this was one aspect they indeed had considered as a negative to this design when they first saw it. It’s possible that’s part of what was being tested when they ran it during testing in Bahrain. Do you think we will see this wing again during the season?

Shape-shifting AI Transformer homes will leave you wanting one | Kurt Knutsson, Fox News Revolutionizing living spaces with cutting-edge AI and adaptive design AC Future, a leading developer of AI-enabled sustainable living solutions, has partnered with world-renowned Italian design house Pininfarina to create a groundbreaking collection of transformable living spaces. This innovative collaboration has resulted in three distinct products: AI-THd (AI Transformer Home Drivable), AI-THu (AI Transformer Home Unit) and AI-THt (AI Transformer Home Trailer). AI-THd: The ultimate mobile living space The AI-THd is an intelligent, self-sufficient, drivable version of the AI Transformer Home that provides unprecedented mobility and flexibility. Drivers can expand the vehicle from a compact recreational vehicle into a large mobile living space with remarkable ease. The innovative design allows the cockpit to convert into a mobile office or secondary bedroom, creating a versatile living environment. Advanced AI-enabled smart technologies enhance the overall living experience, supporting a range of lifestyle needs and preferences. AI-THu: The smart home reinvented The AI-THu represents a stationary AI-enabled sustainable smart home that transforms to offer 400 square feet of intelligent living space. Its flexible main living area can seamlessly shift between a comfortable lounge, productive office or additional bedroom, maximizing functional utility. The design includes a convertible front expansion for additional living space and a private primary bedroom with extendable wardrobe options. Integrated AI smart home technology, solar panels, energy storage systems and a water generator ensure sustainable and efficient living. Priced starting at $98,000, the AI-THu can be installed anywhere – on-grid or off-grid – while maintaining the comforts of a traditional home. AI-THt: The Transformer Home trailer The AI-THt is a 24-foot-long transformer home trailer that expands to offer up to 400 square feet of sophisticated internal living space. Utilizing patented expansion living technologies, this trailer provides flexible living spaces that adapt to various lifestyle needs. Smart AI enhancements and an aerodynamic design distinguish the AI-THt from traditional trailer homes. The unique construction eliminates the need for a front driving cabin, resulting in a more premium and spacious interior environment that doubles in size when fully expanded. Read more:
