Bionics studies on the aerodynamics of bird flight were carried out in collaboration the TU Berlin and yielded insights and new ideas on how to minimize turbulent drag at the wing tips.The consequent development of these ideas led to a novel shape for propellers, which has been patented worldwide as the Bionic Loop Propeller.
The particular shape helps to save energy and reduces noise, especially in heavy-duty propellers.
