Engineers at Lehigh University have designed and successfully flight-tested a new control device that a pilot can use to tailor the lateral stability of aircraft.
Joachim Grenestedt, associate professor of mechanical engineering and mechanics, designed "canted tabs" that are attached to the ailerons, the movable control surfaces on the wings that are used to roll an aircraft upright.
