Turbulence is the name we give to changes in air pressure that cause aircraft to shake.

Scientists have developed a control technique that could mitigate the effects of turbulence on dynamic structures and vehicles.

The technique required the use of an artificial intelligence (AI) system called FALCON to automatically adjust flight to compensate for turbulence.
