Science Demonstrate an understanding of scientific inquiry.
Demonstrate an understanding of the relationship among motions and forces. Mathematics Use tables and graphs as tools to interpret expressions, equations, and inequalities. FoilSim is an interactive simulation software package that examines the airflow around various shapes of airfoils. As you change the parameters of airspeed. altitude, angle of attack, thickness, curvature of the airfoil, and area of the wing, the software calculates lift. The package was created at the NASA Glenn Research Center to illustrate an example of the research being done there.
