What happens when #DEI becomes DOA in the #aerospace industry?
Last month a nonprofit that recognizes exceptional undergraduate #women and gender #minorities with #space and# aviation internships, the #BrookeOwensFellowship, announced its latest class of "#Brookies."
They may be the last class of Brookies to receive aerospace internships. The reason for this is an executive order signed by President Trump on Jan 20 to end diversity, equity, and inclusion programs, or DEI.

Giorgia Meloni’s government is still supporting Ukraine and backing NATO. Italy’s aerospace and defence sectors help explain why.

Both Meloni’s government and the opposition have put forward complicated if not unrealistic proposals for the war in Ukraine, such as a UN peacekeeping mission after a ceasefire, and repeatedly reaffirmed their commitment to NATO.

wes.copernicus.orgGlauert's optimum rotor disk revisited – a calculus of variations solution and exact integrals for thrust and bending moment coefficientsAbstract. The present work is an amendment to Glauert's optimum rotor disk solution for the maximum power coefficient, CPmax, as a function of tip speed ratio, λ. First, an alternate mathematical approach is pursued towards the optimization problem by means of calculus of variations. Secondly, analytical solutions for thrust and bending moment coefficients, CT and CBe, are derived, where an interesting characteristic is revealed pertaining to their asymptotic behavior for λ→∞. In addition, the limit case of the non-rotating actuator disk for λ→0 is shown for all three performance coefficients by repeated use of L'Hôpital's theorem, and its validity is discussed in the context of other works since Glauert.
