Description: Projects consider developing mission capability of novel aircraft through optimal design and maturation of technologies that may include aeroservoelastic effects, biologically-inspired control effectors, sensor-centric path planning, time-varying adaptive structures, and operating environments ranging from underwater to high-altitude hypersonic. Tasks may include computational modeling, interpreting modes of flight dynamics, analyzing aeroelastic effects, parametrizing design spaces, synthesizing autopilots, trajectory generation, and experimental testing in both wind tunnels and flight fields.
Restrictions/Constraints:
