One of the primary complaints from opponents of wind power is the noise turbines produce. Another complaint is they kill birds, although researchers say they're probably responsible for a tiny ...

The ability of birds to react to choppy gusts is leading aeronautical engineers to explore the concept of hinged wings on planes and drones. The responses to wind of a barn owl named Lily were studied ...

The hinge enables insects to control their wing movements, but how it works is hard to study. Multidisciplinary research, using imaging and machine-learning methods, now sheds light on the mechanism ...

About 350 million years ago, our planet witnessed the evolution of the first flying creatures. They are still around, and some of them continue to annoy us with their buzzing. While scientists have ...
