General Aviation Aircraft In-Flight Load Data Collection and Analysis

  • PI Richard Anderson

  • The scope of the project is to re-asses the fatigue evaluation data for empennage and wing structures of small airplanes.
General Aviation Safety Analysis

  • PI Massoud Bazargan

  • Extensive statistical and data mining methods were implemented to find patterns among fatal and non-fatal GA accidents.
General Relativity and Quantum Gravity

  • PI Charles Vuille

  • Dr. Vuille's research is in the area of Einstein's Theory of General Relativity, particularly on the interface between gravitation and quantum theory. Currently he is working on solutions to Einstein's equations for massless quantum scalar fields and on the gravity field of nucleons and quarks in a study of the Einstein-Maxwell-Proca equations.
Generational Violence: Examining the Radicalization Process of Northern Ireland’s Youth

  • CO-I Sean Herman

    CO-I Amy Grubb

  • This project seeks to understand the mechanism by which young people are becoming radicalized members of paramilitary organizations on both the Republican and Loyalist sides of the conflict.
GNC Efforts in Support of the University of Floridas Research for the NASA Instrument Incubator

  • PI Riccardo Bevilacqua

Gold Standards Training and Evaluator Calibration of Pilot School Check Instructors

  • PI Paul Cairns

    CO-I Andrew Dattel

  • ​A key component of air carrier advanced qualification programs is the calibration and training of instructors and evaluators and assurance of reliable and valid data in support of such programs. A significant amount of research is available concerning the calibration of air carrier evaluators, but no research exists regarding the calibration of pilot school check instructors. This study was designed to determine if pilot school check instructors can be calibrated against a gold standard to perform reliable and accurate evaluations.
GUMP: General Urban Area Microclimate Predictions Tool

  • PI Kevin Adkins

    CO-I Nickolas Macchiarella

    CO-I National Aeronautics and Space Administration NASA

  • Hyperlocal weather predictions are often necessary in order to determine whether a particular sUAS route will be safe to fly. The General Urban area Microclimate Predictions tool (GUMP) seeks to provide such predictions through the use of machine learning (ML) models and computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulations. The computed wind flow field is converted into an intuitive risk map for sUAS operators through the use of appropriate thresholds on wind velocities.

Hazard Detection and Avoidance for Lunar Landing

  • PI Troy Henderson

  • This project develops and demonstrates algorithms for detecting and avoiding areas of large rocks and high slopes for a lunar lander
HIFiRE II Direct Connect Scramjet Engine Simulation

  • PI William Engblom

  • The primary goal of this project is to develop and demonstrate a computational methodology for accurate simulation of scramjet engine internal flows. This research is currently funded by the Department of Defense via a sole source subcontract with NASA Glenn Research Center.
High Spectral Resolution Observations of Lunar Exospheric Emissions

  • PI Edwin Mierkiewicz

  • We are employing high-resolution Fabry-Perot spectroscopy of neutral sodium and potassium emission to investigate the morphology and dynamics of the lunar sodium exosphere. Likely atmosphere source mechanisms are thermal desorption, photo-desorption, ion sputtering, and meteoric impact ablation.

How to Increase the Enrollment and Involvement of Women in the Areas of Aviation, Aeronautical Science, and Aerospace Engineering?

  • PI Dothang Truong

  • Research indicates the persistent under representation of women in aviation, aeronautical science, and aerospace engineering fields. This research presents an effort in increasing the enrollment and involvement of women in these areas using an interdisciplinary approach.
How to Successfully Implement Cloud-Based Solutions in Supply Chain Management?

  • PI Dothang Truong

  • Cloud computing has been proven to have numerous benefits for organizations, especially in supply chain management. More and more organizations have adopted cloud-based solutions to be their primary sourcing applications.
