Oh, face it Michael schumacher is the best, and is only beaten when his car breaks down... Montoya will probably take over that position AFTER Schumi retires or challenges himself by joining some small team.
On the the matter of the headlinesubject I'd like to ask: Isn't a wider tire a better...
Hey there.
I'm currently studying to become a mechanical engineer, and in one of my projects I'm in need of some program that can simulate aerodynamics of different shapes. I only expect some kind of simple pogram, nothing fancy, but I don't know anything about this kind of program, so I...
I've been watching him for a while too, and think it is a great idea and concept, but his vision seems so far away from reality right now... The trafficrules in the sky would be so complex and detailed, that it appears impossible for any organisation to manage them... And even harder to program...
Hey there
I just saw a show on Discovery about spacetravel, and a little question arose as the show ended:
In the documentary, by my observations aged 3 -4 years, they mentioned a plane going to Mars to explore the planet. In the animations it looked a lot like conventional airplanes with...
Hail to the King! :-D
Seriously though, I think the next person will be related to spacetechnology... All in all, the alltime greatest challenge is to allow people to colonize other worlds and spread ( and sadly, as we know supress/kill local inhabitants/"aliens" ) as far as we posibly can...
Hmm... If we don't care about the consequences, we're ready for everything... And as things appear right now, most of the world do not care... That's why cloning and genonmodified food is entering the market, although no one knows about the longterm effects. That is why fission and coal/oil/gas...
Hey there
A little quick question for all you starcrazy people:
When exactly does the year start getting shorter again? Untill the 21st or 22nd of december the days get shorter and shorter, but at some time during those days it shifts, and the days begin to get longer... When does this shift...
With my limited knowledge on radiowaves and radiosignals I can only help a little bit: I know that it is important that the antenna is 1/4 of the wavelength of the signal you're sending/ receiving because you will then have the optimal dimensions of the antennas and therefore have the most...
Hey there
I've been wondering just how efficient radiosignals are... If I were to place a transmitter broadcasting 1 Watt then what would I be receiving at say 10 meters away? Of course the antennas and frequencies are adjusted to near optimal with regards to dimensions, size and frequency in...
Hey there
I think nanotechnology is more like a new tool for engineers and scientists, a way of putting even more technology into even less space... And this new tool is still undergoing huge progress. I think it has the potential to be one of the greatest things in the world, revolutionizing...
Again thank you for your reply, very useful infortation. Still regarding the collection of data, how does it "get into" the computer? Data from a windtunnel with smoke, how do you load that into the computer? I know it looks great, but I can't understand how that kind of experiments can be...
Thank you very much indeed for your thorough answer.
My interest is mostly in the tools, since I probably won't work much with aerodynamics in its pure form as you describe it.. I've just got an idea for an aerodynamicsanalyser, and I am currently checking if its already been invented... So...
Hey there
Some months ago I read about a little gadget that was being mounted on windmills, a laserdevice, that could meassure windspeeds a couple of hundreds of meter in front of the mill, and adjust the angle of the blades accordingly. Do any of you people know anything about such a device...
Hey there
Which methods or tools is there for scientists who work with aerodynamics? Only windtunnels with smoke sticks (and watertanks) and computersimulations based on calculations?
Best regards

I don't know if your question was only intended for internet searches, but here is a bit more boolean info.
Im still studying, so forgive me if my memory decieve me.
Boolean algebra is a widely used technique in logical circuits, meaning your pc consists of thousands of AND & OR gates, which...
