Wind Turbine Testing Rig-1
In developing our technology of the Aeroflexible Surface further we decided to introduce the technology in the Wind Energy field at first. It turned out that there are currently the best market indicators and the biggest potential markets. We have low regulations and other conditions making it to a businesss environment with low market entry barriers. Therefore we currently develop a brand named AF-AX wich will in order once become an own company when all things are set. Feel free to browse to the brand's site.
So Far when developing the aeroflexible surface we need to provide clear evidence that the principle is working not only on small model planes but can be upscaled to bigger applications such as wind energy aso. Further the principle has to outperform classical rotor blade designs in that way, that a solid business model can be build upon.

Aeroflexible Aerodynamics
What about if planes in the near future fly efficiently like birds. Felixschaller.com has reviewed the physics of flight resulting in the idea that surfaces coping with the dynamic matter of fluids, which leads to a highly interactive result. Those correlation in the fluid dynamics effects recommends the solution that surfaces or bodies coping with dynamic matter should be better designed not rigid to reach a most effective solution.
This affects features like lift, stall, turbulences and drag. They are all a reason of an optimal aerodynamic shape, which surprisingly the physics of fluids want to determine by themselves. Resulting in a solution which is pretty much that what nature applies since millions of years. A surface which is assembled by multiple surface elements, layered together and with the Ability to move independently from each other. Those feather like element covering the surface enable the shape to morph in any desired shape needed to achieve the best fluid dynamics condition.
Flyke - Flying Car Concept
Imagine you could get in your car, drive to the next general aviation airport around your corner transform your car into a plane just by pressing a button and take off like James Bond. What about Cars that could fly tomorrow like in James Bond Movies? An ambitioned Dream of Mankind one Day might be reality. The Team of KLK and SEB-Engineering is working hard on it since 2003. felixschaller.com was responsible to do the visualization work for an 3D animated image movie in 2005. Addendum: Unfortunaltely this project was way ahead compared to other fly car projects which now ten years later slowly come up finding their investors to be developed to a real market product. The Flyke Aerocar seemed at that time too early for getting the chance of realisation. As it is with many innovations, they have to hit the public at the right zeitgeist.
