CO-I Wendi Kappers
To improve the quality of EVC instruction, an evaluation was initiated of the modality to further investigate the sources of negative feedback and comments; and to identify strategies and best practices gathered from recent EVC faculty and students suggesting improvements needed in the EVC modality.

I've analyzed the synoptic and sub-synoptic aspects of the 25 December 2006 tornado outbreak in central Florida that resulted in $50 million of damage to the Embry-Riddle campus. I've examined this case from conventional meteorological and emergency-preparedness perspectives.

This study examined whether nicotine from electronic cigarette aerosols deposits on indoor surfaces and how long it persists. Using controlled chamber experiments, the research demonstrated that nicotine readily deposits on both glass and cotton surfaces and remains detectable for several days, with substantially longer persistence on cotton materials, indicating potential for thirdhand nicotine exposure.

CO-I Remelisa Esteves
Surfactants are used in engineering systems for reducing surface tension of fluids, especially water. However, it is not known how their viscosities affect nucleate boiling. The purpose of this research is to determine the viscosities of various surfactant solutions and elucidate the effect of viscosity on nucleate boiling

PI Chelsea LeNoble

CO-I Allison Kwesell
The project's specific aims are to: (1) examine teaching and learning experiences of undergraduate faculty and students in response to the COVID-19 pandemic; (2) examine the effects of faculty and student reactions on undergraduate STEM teaching and learning; and (3) leverage findings to develop actionable recommendations for colleges and universities to best prepare and protect their faculty, staff, and students and the integrity of undergraduate STEM education.

PI Brent Terwilliger

CO-I David Ison

CO-I Dennis Vincenzi
This study represents a longitudinal study to further the findings aof an earlier study examining UAS operator situational awareness.

PI Shafika Showkat Moni
Most of the Public Key Infrastructure (PKI) based security and privacy solutions for VANETs use pseudonyms where each vehicle gets multiple identities to improve privacy significantly.

PI Anatoly Streltsov
Propagation of electromagnetic waves in the inhomogeneous, magnetized plasma and interactions between these waves and energetic electrons inside the radiation belt are among the most important and interesting problems of modern geophysics.

PI Robert Thomas
The use of Electronic Flight Bags (EFB) is increasing in aviation. The purpose of this research is to investigate if the use of an Electronic Flight Bag (EFB) during flight courses has an impact on flight student performance. Flight students will be given a series of instrument approaches to fly with paper instrument charts and with an EFB.

Engineering Global Leaders

PI Andrew Kornecki

CO-I Massood Towhidnejad
In this multi-institution engineering mobility project sponsored by the Fund for Improving Post-Secondary Education of the U.S. Department of Education, participating students and faculty concentrate on engineering education and research by supporting study abroad.

PI Shawn Milrad

PI Daniel Halperin
This research collaboration with the National Weather Service (NWS) Weather Forecast Office Tampa Bay aims to develop an ingredients-based methodology to help improve forecasts of first-strike cloud-to-ground lightning strikes in summer thunderstorms across Central Florida. Results will be used to construct a new forecast tool that will aid NWS forecasters in protecting the region’s life and property from these dangerous lightning events.
