Aerodynamics/Aeromodelling SIG

A newly introduced group, this SIG aims to share knowledge and technical know-how on aerodynamics basics, aircraft design and glider/powered model planes.
Some proposed activities and initiatives include: 

• Talks, seminars and information exchange sessions on the basic physics behind flight.
• Discussions on development of aircraft through the ages and plane trivia.
• Analysis of flight in nature and biomimicry as applied to the modern day aerospace industry.
• Knowledge exchange sessions on aerospace materials and engineering.
• Tutorials on aeromodelling/testing software such as XFLR5.
• Presentations and interactions centred around design of RC(remote- controlled) planes.
• Discussion of relevant problem statements from technical fests such as Engineer and Shaastra.
• Combined participation in flying events in various fests.
• Possible long-term projects related to aeromodelling.
