Aircraft Design – How to use Wing and Thrust Loading in your designs
This 18-minute video is the first tutorial in our new aircraft design series. The topic is how designers use thrust loading and wing loading to select propulsion units, and size aircraft wings in the concept design stage.

How to Calculate Shear Stress
Introduction to Shear Force and Shear Stress Shear force and shear stress are critical concepts in mechanics and materials science, often encountered in structural engineering and manufacturing. Shear Force refers to the internal force in a material that acts parallel to its cross-section. It is measured in Newtons (N). Shear force arises when two opposing […]

Kirchhoff’s current and voltage laws In our last article, we looked at the principles and operation of a d.c motor. In this article, we’re going to investigate Kirchoff’s current and voltage laws, as well as how to apply them to engineering problems. Kirchoff’s law of current Kirchoff’s law of current states that the algebraic sum […]
