Flavio Campanile, head of a research group in Empa’s Mechanics for Modeling and Simulation Laboratory, is convinced that aircraft can be made which move more elegantly and, above all, more economically through the air. “Sooner or later it will be possible to make wings without ailerons, flaps and thousands of individual parts. They will have in principle only one component, which continually changes shape.”

Hyundai and BASF – The Chemical Company are presenting their jointly developed i-flow concept car at the Geneva Motor Show. Visitors can get a first-hand view of the technologies and materials involved at Hyundai’s booth 1031 in Hall 1. These innovations have not been combined in automobiles to date and illustrate possibilities for mobility in the future. For example, the interior of the i-flow offers a revolutionary seating concept, and the high-gloss Liquid Metal coating is not only eye-catching but also environmentally friendly thanks to the use of a waterborne paint system.
The sportiest and most powerful motorcycle from BMW, the new S 1000 RR, draws its combustion air from an intake system with a built-in air filter function made from Ultramid® B3WGM24 HP, an extremely dimensionally stable polyamide (PA) from BASF. In motorcycle design, this component is called an airbox. For this high-performance motorcycle, the Stuttgart and Öhringen facilities of MAHLE (Germany) developed and manufactured the first airbox with an electrically adjustable runner length.
