Ebook "How to build a car: The greatest Formula One designer of his - or any other - age" explores the story of Adrian’s unrivalled 35-year career in Formula One through the prism of the cars he has designed, the drivers he has worked alongside and the races in which he’s been involved. A true engineering genius, even in adolescence Adrian’s thoughts naturally emerged in shape and form – he began sketching his own car designs at the age of 12 and took a welding course in his school summer holidays.

This article presents an approach to build and verify a tool for calculating aerodynamic noise characteristics of helicopter rotors. The calculation tool is built on the basis of combining the vortex lattice method and the Formulation 1A of Farrasat, which is one of solutions of the Ffowcs Williams-Hawkings (FW-H) equation.

This paper presents an approach using the CFD method to build a calculated model for studying aerodynamic interaction between the main rotor and helicopter fuselage. The calculated model consists of two components which are the main rotor and helicopter fuselage, that is capable of determining the aerodynamic characteristics of the main rotor in consideration of the influence of the helicopter fuselage.

The challenge of the American automobile has had citizens, planners, and environmentalists stumped for decades. How will it ever be possible to get Americans to give up their love affair with cars? One of the most effective solutions to date is a project known as car-sharing: a network of cars and trucks for people to use on a pay-per-use basis. Rather than simply pointing out the negative conse- quences of automobile dependency and associated sprawl, car-sharing offers a practical, tangible way to improve the environment, promote social equity and build local capacity.

The book "Wind Tunnels and Experimental Fluid Dynamics Research" is comprised of 33 chapters divided in five sections. The first 12 chapters discuss wind tunnel facilities and experiments in incompressible flow, while the next seven chapters deal with building dynamics, flow control and fluid mechanics. Third section of the book is dedicated to chapters discussing aerodynamic field measurements and real full scale analysis (chapters 20-22).

Originally an engine was a mechanical device that converted force into motion. Military devices such as catapults, trebuchets and battering rams are referred to as siege engines. The term "gin" as in cotton gin is recognised as a short form of the Old French word engin, in turn from the Latin ingenium, related to ingenious. Most devices used in the industrial revolution were referred to as engines, and this is where the steam engine gained its name.
