| Description: | INSPIRED FROM THE HIGHLY EFFICIENT AERODYNAMICS OF BIRDS, THE VERSATILITY OF THE JELLY-MOON FRINGES, THE MANTA RAY AND SHARKS, THE MULTIDISCIPLINARY PROJECT BEALIVE INTRODUCES A NEW SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY AT THE INTERFACE BETWEEN AERONAUTICS AND BIOENGINEERING. THE PROJECT CREATES A “LIVE SKIN” COMPOSED OF AN INNOVATIVE MOVING INTERFACE BETWEEN AN AIR-VEHICLE AND THE SURROUNDING TURBULENCE. APPLIED AROUND A BODY, E.G. AROUND AN AIRCRAFT’S WING, THIS CONTRIBUTES TO INCREASE THE AERODYNAMIC PERFORMANCE AND REDUCE NOISE FAR BEYOND ALL SYSTEMS CURRENTLY UNDER STUDY. |
