New generations of aircraft like the Boeing 787 and the Airbus a380 are far more efficient than older aircraft#70%more fuel efficient than aircraft of 40 years ago, according to the International air transport association (IATA.
while robots are not ready to machine an Airbus turbine blade, they are definitely viable for the pre-manufacturing processes of, for example, metal parts,
The jumbo jet maker Airbus introduced a concept design for smart luggage at the Paris Air Show last year.
Some 50%of the new Airbus a350 jet, for example, will be made from composites. Yet until now, none of this thermoset plastic could be recycled.
in collaboration with aircraft manufacturer Airbus, involving a jet engine air inlet that traditionally causes drag during flight.
Airbus has patented just a delta-wing Mach 4. 5 hypersonic design that could be used to create business jets.
The retired Concorde produced a 135-decibel noise on the ground a lot more than the average Airbus. Another problem is that of the uperboomwhich develops
according to research by Airbus and the Japan Aircraft Development Corporation. he estimated ticket price for Tokyo to Los angeles is the same as that of an existing first-class seat,
Airbus and Aerion aeroplane tests will start in 2019. The European A2 Mach 5 aeroplane may take another 20 years to complete.
#Airbus patents plane that could fly from New york to London in 1 hour A rocket-plane that could fly from Vancouver to Tokyo in three hours instead of 10 has been patented by Airbus. The U s. patent for an"ultra-rapid air vehicle
and related method for aerial locomotion"was awarded to Airbus, also known as the European aeronautic defence and space company, in July. Airbus said the plane would be targeted mainly at business travel
and VIP passengers"who require transcontinental return journeys within one day, "and at the military.
Airbus said it files for hundreds of patents a year.""These patents are often based on R&d concepts and ideas in a very nascent stage of conceptualization,
"Airbus has filed other unusual aircraft patents in the past. For example, last summer, it filed a patent to bicycle-style seats on planes that would make it possible to cram more passengers in the same amount of space.
Airbus files patent for a hypersonic jet more than double the speed of Concorde A trip from London to New york could take just one hour
if Airbus has its way. The aerospace manufacturer is designing a hypersonic jet that it hopes will take people between the two major cities faster than most daily commutes.
The US Patent and Trademark Office recently approved an application from Airbus for the new jet,
Airbus says it has designed the craft's aerodynamics to limit sonic boom, which was a major problem for Concorde
Airbus thinks the jet would be able to complete trips such as Tokyo to Los angeles in just three hours.
But Airbus isn't the only one vying to create hypersonic aircraft technology. Last month, Air force bosses revealed they hope to have a hypersonic plane capable of crossing countries in minutes by 2023.
'based on a patent awarded to Airbus in July, which describes a craft that climbs vertically into the air before breaking the sound barrier as it travels horizontally across the sky.
Airbus hopes its planned hypersonic jet which would travel at 4. 5 times the speed of sound,
Airbus'jet is described as'an air vehicle including a fuselage, a gothic delta wing distributed on either side of the fuselage,
Airbus says it has designed the craft's aerodynamics to limit sonic boom, making it much quieter than Concorde,
However, unlike with Concorde, the Airbus design will limit passengers to just 20. t
#Forget PINS, soon you'll be able drawing money out using your EYES: Retinal scanning to be trialled by Citigroup Citigroup is testing new technology that will allow customers to withdraw money using retinal scanning.
#Airbus patents design for Mach 4-plus supersonic jet If there's one area where the 21st century has gone backwards technologically,
Now Airbus'Marco Prampolini and Yohann Coraboeuf have been granted a US patent for an"ultra-rapid air vehicle"designed to fly at 20 km (12.4 mi) higher than conventional aircraft and over four times the speed of sound twice the speed of Concorde.
The Airbus patent takes the idea of the Concorde, boosts the performance and reduces the impact of the infamous sonic boom.
According to Airbus, the craft is essentially a flying tanker with most of the fuselage made up of liquid oxygen and ecofriendly liquid hydrogen.
But what really sets the Airbus dsign apart is its suite of propulsion systems used to keep it aloft.
Airbus says that the supersonic passenger craft can operate from conventional airports so long as they can supply the cryogenic propellants.
It's highly unlikely that the Airbus supersonic will ever be built, but if it is,
GE designed the material into an engine called the LEAP to be used on the coming Airbus 320neo and Boeing 737 MAX.
"Typically, if you're going to cook a fuselage for an Airbus a350 or Boeing 787, you've got about a four-story oven that's tens of millions of dollars in infrastructure that you don't need,
"This research was funded in part by Airbus Group, Boeing, Embraer, Lockheed martin, Saab AB, Tohotenax, ANSYS Inc.,the Air force Research Laboratory at Wright-Patterson Air force base,
Both lasers have now been delivered to Airbus Defence and Space in Toulouse, France, ready to be integrated into the rest of Aladin.
the team spirit and motivation has remained always high. ow that the lasers are both safely in the hands of Airbus in France we wish them well with integrating them into the Aladin instrument
The Aladin team at Airbus have had the first laser since last year and have carried already out some important tests on its optics.
who have overcome major technology issues along the way. he contributions of Airbus Defence and Space,
#Shape-Shifting Carbon Composites Could Save Fuel Airbus and researchers at MIT are developing shape-shifting materials that could make aircraft simpler and lighter potentially saving fuel.
because many can t handle the conditions planes are exposed to such as extreme temperature changes says Christophe Cros a technology program leader at Airbus. The MIT approach has a number of advantages Cros says.
*The Airbus a380 passenger jet has a carbon fibre reinforced plastic fuselage for a lower fuel consumption. The researchers claim the new technology would allow wings to fix themselves in mid-flight,

#Airbus to build giant satellite network European aerospace giant, Airbus, is going to build the world's largest satellite constellation.
The company will produce 900 spacecraft for Oneweb, a British Channel Islands-registered concern that aims to broaden internet access to the underserved.
Airbus will be the"industrial partner"on the project. And the role represents an immense challenge
because Airbus has made its name on some of the world's highest specification and most expensive telecommunications platforms.
Airbus says it will make the first 10 spacecraft at its Toulouse manufacturing facility before shifting work to a dedicated plant in the United states. Many rockets will be required to get the constellation in orbit
Airbus would not give a formal interview at the airshow but issued a statement from its head of space systems. his partnership is a fantastic new chapter in our space story,
and expertise across the entire Airbus Group. neweb is led by Greg Wyler, and the American entrepreneur was pictured meeting French President François Hollande at the Le Bourget showground.
The new Airbus a350 XWB that is flying daily displays at the Paris Air Show can claim several engineering firsts.
The 3d components on the A350 XWB are mostly widgets and brackets, formed by fusing layer upon layer of resins in machines that replicate computer-generated 3d models.
says Ian Risk, Airbus Group's head of innovations in the UK, where the aerospace giant makes aircraft wings."
Say, for example, an A380 superjumbo is flying into Singapore and needs a new part. In our digitally connected world, a machine could be programmed to start printing even before the aircraft lands.
#Airbus takes on Spacex: Firm set to build world's largest satellite constellation to beam the internet around the world By Sarah Griffiths for Mailonline Published:
17:32 GMT, 16 june 2015 Aerospace behemoth Airbus is set to build the largest satellite constellation seen so far.
Airbus will make 900 spacecraft-building up to four a day-with 300 to be kept as spares for after the proposed launches,
e have worked with Airbus Space and Defence, to streamline the manufacturing process to the point that several satellites can be produced each day. his will redefine the cost structure for satellites,
director of Airbus's Defence and Space programme, said: his partnership is a fantastic new chapter in our space story.?
