A Heavy-duty Military Transport Unmanned Truck Based on the Tesla Demi Equipped With the C-RAM System

Transporting military cargo, especially ammunition, is one of the most dangerous missions in combat.

My project involves using heavy-duty UGVs based on Tesla Demi tractor units, equipped with an automatic missile, artillery, and mortar countermeasure system, instead of manned trucks.

The fact is that military cargo such as ammunition is not only extremely explosive but also very expensive.

A Holonic Pyramidal Hierarchy for Commercial Aviation Spanning Local, International and Extra-planetary Travel

A three-layer holon concept is a compelling way to think about future transport as a stacked mobility architecture rather than a set of isolated vehicles that are capable of self-management, interoperable with the layers above and below.

Layer 1 is the urban, suburban, and intercity zero-emission VTOL layer. This layer would handle short trips,

A Wide Body Double-decker Passenger Aircraft With Adjustable Flat Seats

The low seat inclination and low leg room in passenger aircraft is a great discomfort to passengers particularly, during long haul flights. Addressing this will mean reducing the number of passengers, particularly those in the economy class by about half. This however will result in high ticket prices.

AB-U10: Autonomous Airborne Net-gun Interceptor for Counter-UAS Operations

The AB-U10 is an autonomous airborne counter-UAS (C-UAS) interceptor powered by Electric Ducted Fan (EDF) vectored thrust technology. Unlike ground-based jammers, nets, or kinetic effectors, the AB-U10 launches vertically without a runway or catapult, climbs to intercept altitude within seconds,

Adaptive Resilient UAV System (ARUS): Real-Time Failure Survival and Mission Adaptation for Industrial Drones

Drone failures don’t have to end in loss.

Turning Failures into Controlled Outcomes.

Adaptive Resilient UAV System (ARUS) is a supervised-autonomy framework designed to enable industrial drones to detect, respond to, and survive real-time system degradation or failure while maintaining mission continuity.

AdaptiWing: Real-Time Morphing Aircraft Wing via Shape-Memory Alloy Actuators

Commercial aviation accounts for 2.5% of global CO₂ emissions, with aerodynamic drag representing the single largest efficiency loss factor beyond engine thermodynamics. Conventional wing designs use discrete hinged flaps and slats, mechanically complex, hydraulically driven systems that optimize the wing for only two conditions: takeoff/landing and cruise. For all other flight phases, climb, descent, turbulence response, gust loading,

AeroDock: A Redundant Multipoint Docking Interface for Detachable Fuselage Aircraft

Modern commercial aviation safety is heavily focused on accident prevention. However, when catastrophic structural failures or unavoidable crashes occur, passengers remain entirely dependent on the survival of the main airframe. AeroDock is a revolutionary, synchronized multipoint docking system designed to make modular, detachable-fuselage aircraft a reality,

AeroMorph: An Adaptive Servo-Controlled Morphing Wing UAV for Energy-Efficient Flight

AeroMorph is an adaptive morphing wing UAV concept designed to improve flight efficiency by allowing the aircraft wing to change its aerodynamic shape according to different flight conditions. Conventional UAV wings are generally designed with a fixed geometry, which means they must compromise between lift, speed, stability, and energy consumption throughout a flight.
