Wing Impact Model

A Newtonian flat-plate physics model showing the impact forces acting on a wing.

What it can do

  • Model a wing as a flat plate under Newtonian aerodynamics
  • Calculate impact force at different speeds and angles
  • Visualise how force changes with wing orientation
  • Use the results to inform wing and mount design

A flat-plate physics model that shows students how aerodynamic impact force on a wing changes with speed and angle — real numbers to inform their wing and mount design, not just a guess.
