#vehicle design
- Aerodynamicist — An engineer or researcher specialized in the field of aerodynamics; a specialist who deals with the study, design, optimization, and testing of the behavior of solid bodies (aircraft, cars, rockets) moving through airflows or gases. This activity includes the use of advanced computer simulations and experimental tests in wind tunnels to reduce drag resistance.
- Aerodynamic efficiency — The quality, property, or degree to which a solid object possesses an aerodynamic shape; the structural capacity of a vehicle's body or an aircraft's fuselage to pierce through air layers with minimal drag resistance. Although frequently used in automotive or commercial jargon, the refined technical term 'aerodynamics' is preferred in academic settings.
