A Biologically Inspired Architecture Screening Tool to Improve Electric Grid Transient Response Design

  • PI Bryan Watson

  • The objective of this research is to develop and validate a new approach to design-for-transient resilience that provides additional insights, is less expensive, and can be used early in the design process.

A Boltzmann Simulator for Porous Media Flows

  • PI Leitao Chen

  • ​This project develops numerical simulations through parallel development of a Boltzmann model to capture and elucidate multiscale thermos-fluids behaviors in porous media, as well as the fluid-solid interactions.
A Machine Learning Based Transfer to Predict Warhead In-Flight Behavior from Static Arena Test Data

  • PI Riccardo Bevilacqua

  • The objective of this work is to combine high-fidelity numerical models with unique/ad-hoc experimental activities to strengthen basic science underpinning the test and evaluation framework for warhead fragmentation and fragments fly-out.
ADS-B Payload for the RED-4U Re-entry Space Vehicle

  • PI Richard Stansbury

  • For this project, Embry-Riddle faculty and students are collaborating with Terminal Velocity Aerospace as a subcontractor a project funded by NASA's Space Technology Mission Directorate.
ADS-B Technology for Reusable Launch Vehicles

  • PI Massood Towhidnejad

    CO-I Richard Stansbury

  • For this project, Embry-Riddle faculty and students are collaborating with the sponsor, the FAA Office of Commercial Space Transportation, and the MITRE Corporation to produce an ADS-B technology capable of supporting the tracking of commercial space operations of sounding rockets and reusable launch vehicles.
Aeroelastic Gust-Airfoil Interaction Numerical Studies

  • PI Vladimir Golubev

  • The project conducted in collaboration with WPAFB and Eglin AFB AFRL scientists over the past 8 years employs DOD HPC and ERAU computer facilities to conduct high-fidelity, low-Reynolds, aeroelastic gust-airfoil interaction studies to model unsteady responses and their control for small UAVs operating, e.g., in highly unsteady urban canyons.
Applying Second Language Acquisition to Facilitate a Blended Learning of Programming Languages

  • PI Lulu Sun

    CO-I Christina Frederick

    CO-I Paula Sanjuan Espejo

    CO-I Rebecca Rohmeyer

  • This research seeks to fundamentally change how students learn programming using Second Language Acquisition and Blended Learning (SLA-aBLe). This approach can be easily transferred to K-12 curricula, increasing access to STEM learning for diverse student populations. By developing an engineering faculty member's expertise in engineering education research, it will enhance communication and collaboration among faculty members and student researchers in different disciplines.
Artificial Immune System for Flight Envelope Estimation and Protection

  • PI Hever Moncayo

  • This research project, funded by the US Defense Department, represents a collaboration between Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University (ERAU) and West Virginia University (WVU). Two ERAU graduate students are fully involved in this project, one AE PhD student and one Master Student.
ASSURE A55

  • PI Richard Stansbury

    PI Christopher Herbster

  • The aviation industry uses flight data recorders (FDR) and cockpit voice recorders (CVR) to investigate accidents and incidents. FDRs record sensor data to provide information about an aircraft’s technical status, while CVRs record sounds from the cockpit to draw conclusions through crew communications and environmental sounds.

Behavior of superalloys subjected to fatigue loads under high temperature

  • PI Alberto Mello

    CO-I Paulina De La Torre Morales

    CO-I Open Position - New students are welcome

  • This study is evaluating what initial conditions can activate cubic slip planes, then the level of accommodation and strain homogenization within the grain, and how a given initial condition affects the material behavior when subjected to operational cyclic loads under high temperature.
Biodiesel Fuel Production and Testing for an Aerospace Class Jet Engine

  • PI Marc Compere

  • The research project is studying the production of a standards compliant bio-diesel fuel from the campus cafeteria's waste cooking oil using the bio-diesel reactor in the Mechanical Engineering department.
Bird Strike - The Effect of the Leading Edge Radius on the Behavior of the Bird Upon Impact

  • PI Alberto Mello

    CO-I Kiran Kumar Avula

    CO-I James Pembridge

  • This project is in partnership with Gulfstream Aerospace Corporation under MMSE program.

    Birds pose a major threat to aviation. Bird impact can lead to significant damage of the aircraft and can be sometimes catastrophic. For a damage tolerant design of an aircraft structure, the structure has to fulfill the airworthiness specifications prescribed by FAA or EASA.
