Mixing of a supercritical jet in a supercritical cross-flow
  • PI Neil Sullivan

    CO-I Mark Ricklick

  • This project is focused on the exploration and validation of numerical modeling techniques, for the simulation of supercritical jets in crossflow. 
MRI: Acquisition of a High Power, Tunable Diode Laser to Upgrade the Na Lidar System at the Andes Lidar Observatory
  • PI Alan Liu

  • This MRI grant supports the replacement of an aging master oscillator in the Na wind/temperature lidar at the Andes Lidar Observatory (ALO), located in Cerro Pachón, Chile.
Multi-Modal Sensor Fusion for ASV Situational Awareness
  • PI Eric Coyle

    CO-I Patrick Currier

  • An investigation into strategies and techniques for maritime object detection and classification using visual and spatial data with an emphasis on sensor fusion.
Multiscale Computational and Experimental Framework to Elucidate the Biomechanics of Infant Growth
  • PI Victor Huayamave

  • There is currently a lack of biomechanical quantification of growth and development because: (1) there is no generic musculoskeletal infant model, and (2) the lack of infant data in the literature.

NASA/ZeroG Microgravity Research
  • CO-I Pedro LLanos

    CO-I Sathya Gangadharan

  • ²ÝÝ®ÊÓÆµ and Carthage College proposed a technology demonstration that has several advantages over passive slosh control. Relative to slosh baffles, the proposed MAPMD technology has a lower total mass, a much higher degree of surface wave suppression, and less volumetric intrusion into the tank. The MAPMD concept also is optimized for cylindrical tanks (unlike elastomeric diaphragms, which work only in spherical pressure vessels), and currently requires no structural design changes to existing cylindrical propellant tanks.
NASA’s Embry-Riddle High-Altitude Science Experiment Rig (ERHASER)
  • PI Pedro LLanos

    CO-I Sathya Gangadharan

  • The purpose of this study aboard the NASA’s Airborne Science Program WB-57 aircraft was to assess the effect of radiation on murine naïve and activated T lymphocytes (T cells) and to test the effectiveness of thermal, radiation and flight tracking technology in biological scientific payloads. Flight cells were kept under proper environmental conditions by using an active thermal system, whereas the levels of radiation were measured by NASA’s Timepix radiation sensor during ascent, cruise at 60,000 feet, and descent.
Navigation and Control for Autonomous Vessels
  • PI Darris White

    PI Eric Coyle

    PI Patrick Currier

  • Development of closed-form solution for control of over-actuated maritime systems.
Neuromuscular-Activated Armband for Safety Operation of Small Unmanned Aircraft Systems
  • CO-I Eduardo Divo

    CO-I Victor Huayamave

    CO-I Jeremy Brown

  • The goal of this research is to implement wearable technology using neuromuscular activation and electrocardiograms signals to successfully operate small UAS using safety parameters proposed by the FAA.
NextGen Task G 4D FMS TBO Demonstration Benefits Analyses
  • PI Massoud Bazargan

  • The goal of the project was to leverage existing technology and Flight Management System (FMS) capabilities as a starting point to define standards and requirements for trajectory exchange, time of arrival control, and other building blocks.
NextGen Task J: Implementation of NextGen Air Traffic Management system. Integrated Airport Initiative. Benefit-Cost Analysis of Aircraft Arrival Management Systems (AAMS)
  • PI Vitaly Guzhva

    CO-I Ahmed Abdelghany

  • The main task was to evaluate AAMS implemented at CLT (with US Airways) and MSP (with Delta Airlines) and quantify its costs and benefits.
Next-Generation Air Transportation System (NextGen) Weather Research
  • PI John Lanicci

  • Various activities in support of NextGen weather research, development, and testing of new capabilities.
