Experimental Academics in Action at ERAU (EAA-at-ERAU)

  • PI Michael Wills

  • EAA@ERAU: IMAGINE an Experimental Academic Approach that puts academic experimentation into action in ways that attract and engage both existing students AND prospective students, students who want to join us in blazing a new trail, finding a new way to look at a tried-and-true topic.

Experimental Identification of Plasma Wave Modes

  • PI Heidi Nykyri

    CO-I Rachel Rice

  • Project uses MMS data to identify plasma wave modes contributing  to the heating of the magnetospheric boundary layer
Experimental Identification of Plasma Wave Modes in Vicinity of KH Vortices and in Plasma ’Mixing’ Regions in Low Latitude Boundary Layer (Ion scales)

  • PI Heidi Nykyri

  • Project uses Cluster spacecraft data to identify ion-scale waves within Kelvin-Helmholtz waves.
Experimental Testbed for the Validation of Autonomous ISAM/OSAM Systems

  • PI Morad Nazari

    CO-I Kadriye Merve Dogan

    CO-I Thomas Lovell

  • The ability to validate individual hardware and software components of these technologies on a large scale is still in its early stages. Thus, the goal of this research is to establish an effective experimental testbed for the validation of autonomous in-space servicing and maintenance (ISAM) / on-orbit servicing and maintenance (OSAM) systems.
Exploration: Aerospace Student-Teacher Program for Innovation, Research, and Education (ASPIRE)

  • PI Samantha Bowyer

    CO-I Ronnie Mack

  • Aerospace Student-Teacher Program for Innovation, Research, and Education (ASPIRE) aims to provide high school students and educators with the opportunity to immerse themselves in experiential learning in the scientific environments and receive mentorship from trained scientists.

Exploring vulnerabilities, threats, and exploits in small unmanned aerial systems (sUAS)

  • PI John Craiger

  • Small unmanned aerial systems (sUAS), also known as drones, have been called flying computers given the overlap in their technologies. The purpose of this research is to conduct cybersecurity vulnerability assessments of several sUAS to identify vulnerabilities, threats, and associated exploits to the sUAS. Cyber vulnerabilities could theoretically allow a bad actor to take control of the sUAS, cause it to malfunction while in flight, and more. 

EXTENDING THE LAUNDERED FUNDS DESTINATION THEORY: APPLYING THE WALKER-UNGER GRAVITY MODEL TO RUSSIAN-BASED MONEY LAUNDERER COUNTRY PREFERENCE FROM 2000-2020

  • PI Juan Roman

    CO-I Thomas Schaefer

    CO-I Ana Machuca

  • Determine Russian-based money launderer destination preferrence.

FAA ASSURE Center of Excellence for Unmanned Aircraft Systems

  • PI Richard Stansbury

  • ERAU has completed or is conducting research tasks addressing the impact of maintenance induced failures on UAS safety; the function allocation of systems operations between automated systems, remote pilots, and support crew, surveillance criticality for detect, and avoid systems; impact of UAM air traffic on air traffic controllers; data analysis to determine the impact of UAS on the NAS, UAS flight data recorder requirements, etc.

Fabrication of Copper Lithium-ion Battery Case with Integrated Cooling Channels Using Binder Jetting Additive Manufacturing

  • PI Yue Zhou

    CO-I Wenhao Zhang

    CO-I Heer Patel

    CO-I Henil Patel

    CO-I Sirish Namilae

  • This project leveraged binder jetting processes to directly fabricate metallic battery cases integrated with various cooling channels, paving the way for the additive fabrication of metallic thermal management devices applied in the aerospace field.

FACD Course Evaluation and Assessment

  • CO-I Wendi Kappers

    CO-I Sara Ombres

  • The purpose of this research is to maintain appropriate and accurate records for the evaluation of the FACD (Faculty Development) courses offered by the Rothwell Center for Teaching and Learning Excellence. The evaluation will include: assignments included as part of the courses, end of course surveys, follow-up surveys and assessments. The review of these courses and their assignments will likely reveal common faculty misconceptions or faculty beliefs about teaching and learning which will not only aid the Rothwell CTLE, but other Faculty Development Centers looking to aid faculty with their teaching. The evaluation will also improve the Center’s faculty development process and help uncover future training needs that can be addressed by the Rothwell CTLE. This is an ongoing, department-specific report that can be reviewed by anyone in the university per request.
Federal Aviation Administration - Aviation Ecosystem Cyber Security Data Science (CSDS)

  • PI M. Ilhan Akbas

    CO-I Laxima Niure Kandel

  • ​​To address these needs, the FAA NextGen Organization has established the CSDS research program with emphasis on discovery, assessment, adaptation, demonstration and transfer of cyber technology to enhance information cybersecurity for elements of the aviation ecosystem.
