  • 1 Our nanotubes are right on track

    "We are aiming for miniature systems, with low energy consumption and low cost, which may be easily integrated into structures, for example an airport room, a pipeline, a concrete slab or an aircraft wing", explains Brigitte Attal Trétout. "If we achieve this, it will be an important breakthrough

    Thus, when the wake noise of an aircraft wing is to be studied, the air movements must be modeled in accordance with the profile of the wing. The direct calculations relate solely to the area downstream of the trailing edge, whereas the area upstream is assessed using statistical methods
