Flexcompute provides Vertical Aerospace with latest simulation technology to pioneer electric aviation

Flexcompute, developers of GPU-native simulation technology, announced today that the company is working with Vertical Aerospace, a global aerospace and technology company pioneering electric aviation, to advance the design and development of its VX4 Electric Vertical Take-Off and Landing (eVTOL) aircraft.

Vertical is creating a safer, cleaner and quieter way to travel. Through this collaboration, the company is leveraging Flexcompute's modern, CFD simulation technology to accelerate aerodynamic development, reduce testing cycles and optimize performance.

A spokesperson for Vertical Aerospace said,"With Flexcompute's Flow360 CFD platform, we're able to rapidly simulate complex flows and refine designs faster than ever to bring zero emissions electric flight to the skies faster."

"We're honored to collaborate with Vertical Aerospace in accelerating electric aviation," Vera Yang, President and Co-Founder of Flexcompute said. "Flow360 was built from the ground up to deliver high-fidelity CFD results at unprecedented speed, even on massively parallel cloud infrastructure. This allows Vertical Aerospace's engineers to iterate rapidly on complex geometries, model full-aircraft physics with rotor-airframe interaction, and run full simulations in hours instead of days. It's the kind of performance that turns bold design into real, flyable aircraft."
