Dana Anderson, Iain Boyd and Bob Erickson are among the 130 scientists and engineers from around the country who will be inducted as members of the NAE at a meeting this fall.
Known as an inductively coupled plasma tunnel, the facility in Hisham Ali's lab generates streams of plasma that flow at speeds of hundreds to thousands of miles per hour and burn at up to 9,000 degrees Fahrenheit and hotter.
Diana Hernandez, a sophomore and first-generation student at the Â鶹Ãâ·Ñ°æÏÂÔØ, is conducting research on space dust impacts using data from NASA’s Parker Solar Probe (PSP). As a Lattice Scholar, she models impact data collected by PSP’s magnetometer instruments, which detect signals from dust collisions. This work is part of the Discovery Learning Apprenticeship and Fundamentals of Undergraduate Research Program, offering hands-on research opportunities.
The Â鶹Ãâ·Ñ°æÏÂÔØ’s Ann and H.J. Smead Department of Aerospace Engineering Sciences is pleased to welcome the 2025 PhD Scholars into The Smead Program.
They join the cohort of current Smead Scholars to explore, achieve and lead in aerospace engineering sciences.
Adam Harris is advancing the frontiers of aerodynamics as a non-traditional student, finishing up a doctoral program in which he never expected to enroll. “I’m writing computational fluid dynamics and finite element codes to study flow control
Imagine for a moment that you’re in an auto factory. A robot and a human are working next to each other on the production line. The robot is busy rapidly assembling car doors while the human runs quality control, inspecting the doors for damage and
Anant Telikicherla is developing new instrumentation for an upcoming sub-orbital rocket flight. Surrounded by racks of electronics equipment, tools, and pieces of an aluminum rocket body – the laboratory could be mistaken for a mad scientist’s
The National Science Foundation has bestowed 11 prestigious Graduate Research Fellowship Program awards to Â鶹Ãâ·Ñ°æÏÂÔØ engineering students.The national awards recognize and support outstanding grad students from across the
