    Abstract: An aircraft defines a longitudinal direction, a vertical direction, and a transverse direction. The aircraft includes a fuselage; and a wing extending from the fuselage generally along the transverse direction and defining an outer end along the transverse direction. The wing includes a wing tip assembly at the outer end of the wing, the wing tip assembly defining an axis substantially parallel to the longitudinal direction of the aircraft and a circumferential direction extending about the axis, the wing tip assembly including at least three stationary guide vanes spaced along the circumferential direction from one another.

    Abstract: An aircraft defines a longitudinal direction and includes a fuselage extending between a forward end and an aft end along the longitudinal direction of the aircraft. An aft engine is mounted to the aft end of the fuselage. The aft engine further includes a nacelle including a forward section. An airflow duct extends at least partially through the nacelle of the aft engine and defines an outlet on the forward section of the nacelle for providing an airflow to the forward section of the nacelle.

    Abstract: Noise attenuation structures, such as acoustic liners for gas turbine engines, are provided. For example, an acoustic liner comprises a face sheet, a backing sheet spaced apart from the face sheet, and a plurality of cavities defined between the face and backing sheets. The cavities are defined by cavity walls. A plurality of backing sheet walls extends from the backing sheet toward the face sheet. The backing sheet walls extend adjacent the cavity walls, and the backing sheet is movable with respect to the face sheet such that the cavities have a variable depth. Other embodiments of noise attenuation structures also are provided.

    Abstract: An aircraft assembly includes an engine, and intake, and a propeller assembly. The engine is mounted to at least one of a wing or fuselage of an aircraft. The intake is configured to provide air to the engine. The intake includes a body having an engine inlet through which air enters the intake. The propeller assembly includes propeller blades coupled to and driven by the engine. The propeller assembly is spaced an axial distance from the inlet opening of the intake wherein air passing by the propeller blades enters the intake. The propeller assembly has a propeller configuration that is at least one of sized or shaped to optimize performance of the propeller assembly based on an interaction between the propeller assembly and the intake.
