Seminar
- Please join Mark Sirangelo as he welcomes General Jim Dickinson (Ret.) to CU Boulder for a fascinating seminar and Q&A on what is U.S. Space Command, U.S. Space Force, how they...
Flow control is the notion of manipulating the evolution of a fluid flow to achieve a desired outcome using passive or active means. Flow control technologies can enhance performance and...
The renewed global interest in lunar exploration, rapid expansion of the commercial space sector, and national investments in crewed missions have created one of the...
Spacecraft drag is a significant perturbation that affects spacecraft in low Earth orbit (LEO) and at destinations throughout the Solar System. Drag modeling is complex due to...
The significant advances in computational technology now allow us to perform detailed simulations of complex systems. Accompanying this advancement has been a...
Immersed finite element methods enable the simulation of physical systems that are challenging - or even prohibitively complex - for classical finite element approaches, spanning domains from...
Safety assurance is critical in autonomous vehicle operation. Yet, this principle is significantly challenged in space, where vehicles must operate in nonlinear environments with...
Aerospace engineers constantly face “wicked problems,” which are ill-defined and complex sociotechnical problems with undefined and often-shifting constraints and...- Seminar: Towards Computational Modeling of Materials Under Space Environmental Conditions - Sept. 19Elastomers and polymers such as silicone and Kapton have a wide range of applications across engineering disciplines, including structural components and thermal shields in space structures. In these applications, the...
Our solar system is a fascinating place full of incredible mysteries that help explain where life came from, and where humanity may be going in the future. I have devoted my career so far to participating in the exploration of the...
