Low Dimple Coverage and Low Drag Golf Ball
Researchers at the George Washington University and Arizona State University have been developing a family of novel golf ball designs that can reduce drag by as much as 15% compared to traditional designs based on dimples. The new designs will allow for improved aerodynamics performance which can be used to increase the distance the ball travels or...

Polyhedra Golf Ball with Lower Drag Coefficient
Researchers at the George Washington University have invented a novel class of golf balls having a polyhedra design that can yield lower drag coefficient than designs based on dimpled spheres. The drag reduction is applicable to other sports equipment in general having a bluff body, such as the head of a golf club or a bike helmet. For the past 100...
