As the aerospace industry rapidly advances toward more sustainable and high-performance flight capabilities, next-generation propulsion systems are significantly transforming aircraft design and manufacturing requirements. Each propulsion method demands proven components and sealing solutions capable of functioning reliably in extreme conditions. In this interview, Dongyeop Shin, Aerospace Sales Manager, Omniseal Solutions, discusses how to engineer precision sealing solutions for sustainable urban air mobility (UAM) and electric aircraft operations.

The U.S. Air Force Sustainment Center’s Warner Robins Air Logistics Complex (WR-ALC) has taken a major step toward modernizing depot operations: securely connecting manufacturing machines, robots, and digital analytics tools across previously isolated enclaves.

If you’ve ridden in a modern car, bus, truck, aircraft, or even on certain bicycles, you’ve used hydraulic brakes.

Sometimes akin to receiving a root canal, holiday gift giving is not for the faint of heart. Most times, the recipient is left disappointed. Other times, the present will serve as a bone of contention. It makes matters 10 times worse if the receiver has an engineering background. You already know why.

Miniaturization ranks as the driving force behind the semiconductor industry. The tremendous gains in computer performance since the 1950s are largely due to the fact that ever smaller structures can be manufactured on silicon chips. Chemical engineers at ETH Zurich have now succeeded in reducing the size of organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) — which are currently primarily used in premium mobile phones and TV screens — by several orders of magnitude. Their study was recently published in the journal Nature Photonics.
