Why does air turbulence occur during the flight? Turbulence, an unstable airflow, is often generated in the atmosphere due to uneven thermal distribution and terrain blocking, which is the main reason for aircraft turbulence.
Shen Haijun, professor and doctoral advisor of the School of Aeronautics and Mechanics of Tongji University, said: "Most of the turbulence is mild and lasts for a short time; only a small part of the turbulence is strong, Singapore Airlines flight probably encountered extreme turbulence. This turbulence is like an invisible hand, which makes the aircraft throw up and press down. "
He also mentioned that there is no safety problem in most of the turbulence in the air. "But passengers on board may be dangerous, especially those Passengers who do not fasten their seat belts. In case of heavy turbulence Thrown up in the cabin, or even hit the cabin roof or bulkhead And then get hurt. "
