Researchers using the Frontier supercomputer at Oak Ridge National Laboratory have identified aerothermal flaws in jet engine turbine blades that conventional simulation methods could not detect. The ...

Jet engines are built to terrifyingly tight tolerances, yet the latest simulations on the world’s first exascale supercomputer suggest their biggest weakness may be measured in micrometers.

A technician who once shaped jet engine parts by hand is now helping train ...

The GE Aerospace F110 jet engine on a test stand. The U.S. Dept. of Defense awarded $5 billion to GE Aerospace in a new contract to produce and service an undetermined number of F110 engines over a ...

With their capability to fly higher, farther, and more efficiently, jet engines have transformed air travel since their introduction. From its origins in the 1930s, the jet engine was a substantial ...

In an age defined by global competition, geopolitical uncertainty and technological interdependence, the strength and resilience of the United States’ defense and aerospace manufacturing base are more ...
