Intelligent signal processing for secure mobile wireless communications with spectrum and energy efficiency
-
PI Thomas Yang
- In modern wireless communications, scenarios often arise in which the receiver is required to perform detection of multi-user transmissions on the same channel or suppress co-channel interferers. In these scenarios, signal separation techniques based on statistical properties can be highly effective.
Investigate Detect and Avoid Track Classification and Filtering
-
PI Richard Prazenica
CO-I Troy Henderson
CO-I Morad Nazari
- This research will identify key sources of uncertainty in representative detect and avoid architectures and assess the downstream risks and effects of spurious information on downstream system performance
Investigation of an Injection-Jet Self-Powered Fontan Circulation: A Novel Bridge and Destination Therapy for the Failing Fontan
-
PI Eduardo Divo
CO-I Arka Das
-
This research effort unifies multiscale computational fluid dynamics (CFD) and mock circulatory loop (MCL) benchtop cross-validations to analyze the hemodynamic impact of an innovative palliative alternative: the Injection-Jet-assisted Fontan circulation.
Investigation of Bio-Inspired Cylinders for Enhanced Heat Transfer
-
PI Anish Prasad
CO-I Yogesh Pai
CO-I Royce Fernandes
CO-I Mark Ricklick
- This project investigates a novel cylinder design inspired from the Harbor Seal whisker, with the goal of reducing coolant pumping power requirements while maintaining heat transfer rates in pin-fin arrays.
Iranian Proxy Groups in Iraq, Syria, and Yemen A Comparative Analysis
-
CO-I Hugh Sadri
- After the fall of Saddam Hussein, Tehran’s leaders took advantage of Baghdad’s weak position and put many Iraqi power centers and local groups under their influence using a variety of soft to hard power instruments. After the withdrawal of coalition forces from the region in 2011 and through its proxy networks, Tehran gained a solid foothold in Iraq and Syria under the guise of helping Baghdad and Damascus fight the Islamic State. Likewise, Iranian proxy groups have backed Houthi rebels in Yemen fighting a regime dependent on Saudi Arabia for survival. Our primary research question is: How does Iran develop, employ, and sustain proxy organizations in Iraq, Syria, and Yemen, and what vulnerabilities does its regional strategy face as a result? Our objective is to analyze the role of Iranian influence in its proxy organizations across the Middle East.
IUSE/PFE: RED Innovation: Using Scrum to Develop an Agile Department
-
PI Massood Towhidnejad
CO-I Omar Ochoa
CO-I James Pembridge
- Efforts to implement these kinds of changes are often slowed down by department cultures or faculty attitudes about the amount of time and work that would be involved. In this project the Electrical Engineering and Computer Science (EECS) Department at Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University will implement an innovative approach to become a department that responds quickly to student and industry needs.

-
PI Reda Mankbadi
L
Langrangian Wind Tunnel
- ERAU is supporting industry (i.e. Global Aerospace Corp.) in the development of a novel hypersonic wind tunnel by using high-fidelity computational fluid dynamcs.
Large Amplitude Electromagnetic Waves in the Radiation Belt
-
CO-I Miles Bengtson
CO-I Anatoly Streltsov
- When the first American satellite, Explorer I, was launched into space it inadvertently discovered one of the most significant features of our local space environment: the Van Allen Radiation Belts. This region contains highly energetic particles that are hazardous. This research involves one promising remediation mechanism based on interactions between these particles and very-low frequency electromagnetic waves known as whistlers.
LAX Tow Tugs Feasibility Study
-
PI Massoud Bazargan
- Currently, United Airlines does not have any tow tugs at LAX and uses only tractors with pull bars.
Learning from Zombie Ants to Increase UAV Swarm Resilience to Faulted Agents
-
PI Bryan Watson
- This proposal examines the issue of faulted-agent mitigation through the lens of Biologically Inspired Design.
