Considerations for the Development and Deployment of an Unmanned Systems Simulation Framework
  • PI Brent Terwilliger

    CO-I David Ison

    CO-I Dennis Vincenzi

  • This research represents a comparative literature review to identify the best practices, methods, and concepts associated with simulation and its potential use to support unmanned system design, evaluation, analysis, and demonstration within a distributed learning environment.
Cyber hygiene and cyber insurance current practice research
  • PI Wendi Kappers

    CO-I Aaron Glassman

    CO-I Michael Wills

  • Identify the market uptake and applicability of cyber hygiene models, particularly within small to medium enterprises, and relate this to current market practices in the use of cyber insurance policies and mechanisms as part of risk mitigation and management.

Developing and 3D Printing sUAS Fixed-Wing Aircraft for Educational Use
  • PI Joseph Cerreta

    CO-I David Thirtyacre

    CO-I Scott Burgess

  • The capability of commercial off-the-shelf 3D printers has increased rapidly over the past few years, and the ability to design, print and assemble sUAS could save academic institution resources and provide students excellent training.
Developing and Managing 21st Century Aerospace Cluster
  • CO-I Robert Walton

    CO-I Constantine Koursaris

  • The project team will collect, analyze, document and report information on best-practices and lessons learned in managing aerospace clusters in the United States, Europe, Japan, Brazil, and other countries for the purpose of making America's aerospace clusters more competitive.

Eaglet: Writing Center and Tutoring Program
  • CO-I Wendi Kappers

  • The purpose of this research is to develop and implement a fully functioning writing center for the Embry-Riddle Worldwide student body. The program will consist of a tutoring service to aid students with grammatically correct writing, forming coherent arguments, and properly addressing the specific objectives of the paper.
EagleVision Classroom (EVC) Best Practices
  • 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.
E-cigarette nicotine deposition and persistence on glass and cotton surfaces
  • PI Cheri Marcham

    CO-I Beverly Wood

    CO-I Evan Floyd

    CO-I Susan Arnold

  • 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.
Effects of Institutional Responses to the COVID-19 Pandemic on Undergraduate Faculty and Students Across STEM Disciplines
  • 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.
Effects of Visual Interaction on Unmanned Aircraft Operator Situational Awareness in a Dynamic Simulated Environment
  • 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.
Epidemiology of Low Back Injuries in Aircratft Technicians and Mechanics
  • PI Todd Smith

  • For this study, data will be collected from aircraft maintenance technicians and A&P mechanics from both private and public organizations and the military. A zero-inflated Poisson regression analysis will be completed to examine these factors. Researchers will identify risk and protective factors related to demographic variables, work exposures and organizational variables.
Evaluation of potential exposure risks from 3D printing operations using video and direct reading instrument datalogging
  • CO-I Justin Reed

    CO-I Cheri Marcham

  • Internal College of Aviation funding supported a multi-year study evaluating potential particle and VOC exposure risks associated with 3-D printing operations. The work involved student collaboration and resulted in multiple peer-reviewed conference posters and presentations at the American Industrial Hygiene Conference and Exhibition (AIHce), including a virtual presentation in 2021.

  • PI Catherine Paolucci

    CO-I Darryl Chamberlain

    CO-I Christopher Redding

    CO-I Sam Vancini

    CO-I Ashley Reese

  • This project aims to support content knowledge development for secondary mathematics teachers, particularly those whose pathway to certification has included limited post-secondary studies of mathematics.
