Event Overview

The Aviation Engineering Department at Tishk International University successfully hosted an International Workshop on May 14, 2025, focusing on advanced aerodynamics and engine technology. The event, held from 15:00 to 16:30, featured two technical sessions separated by a fifteen-minute break, bringing together experts and participants for knowledge exchange and discussion.

Session Presentations

First Session – Prof. Dr. Shabudin Bin Mat
Prof. Dr. Shabudin explored the development of Delta Wing Aerodynamics in Malaysia, emphasizing its streamlined design, stability at high speeds, and fuel efficiency. He highlighted its potential to advance aviation research, particularly in enhancing aircraft performance and reducing environmental impact.

Second Session – Assist. Prof. Dr. Soorkeu Abdulwahab
Dr. Abdulwahab, Head of the Aviation Engineering Department, discussed the CFM56-7B engine, developed by CFM International for Boeing 737 Next Generation aircraft. He detailed its significant improvements in fuel efficiency, emissions reduction, and noise performance compared to earlier models.

Key Benefits of CFM56-7B Engine

The session underscored the engine’s advantages:

  • Fuel Efficiency: Lower operating costs for airlines

  • Reliability: Proven durability and reduced maintenance requirements

  • Environmental Impact: Quieter operation and reduced emissions
