Observations and Analysis of Wave-Induced Constituent Transport in the Mesopause Region
PI Zhuangren Liu
Vertical constituent transport is a fundamental atmospheric process that has profound effects on the chemistry and composition of the mesosphere and lower thermosphere (MLT). The contributions of gravity wave to the transport and its impact on the composition and structure of the mesopause region is being investigated using a combination of theory, observations and atmospheric chemical models.

Measuring Interstellar Temperature and Ionization Variations Using Observations of Faint Diffuse [OII] Emission
PI Edwin Mierkiewicz
The interstellar medium (ISM) plays a vital role in the ongoing cycle of stellar birth and death as well as galactic evolution. However the role of interstellar matter, from how its properties are influenced by stars to how, in turn, its properties influence star formation is poorly understood.

High Spectral Resolution Observations of Lunar Exospheric Emissions
PI Edwin Mierkiewicz
We are employing high-resolution Fabry-Perot spectroscopy of neutral sodium and potassium emission to investigate the morphology and dynamics of the lunar sodium exosphere. Likely atmosphere source mechanisms are thermal desorption, photo-desorption, ion sputtering, and meteoric impact ablation.

Control Oriented Modeling of Aeroservoelastic Systems
PI Claudia Moreno
Modeling of a flexible aircraft requires a structural model coupled with a consistent aerodynamic model. A challenge of modeling aeroservoelastic effects is the sensitivity of structural and aerodynamic model parameters in the coupled system. As a result, extensive tuning is required to predict accurate flutter characteristics. This research program proposes to investigate the sensitivity of structural and aerodynamic parameters in aeroservoelastic systems.

Aerodynamic Modeling of Ram-Air Parachutes
PI Mark Ricklick
CO-I Richard Anderson
CO-I Angelo Andres Fonseca Pazmino
CO-I Christian Alexis Guzman Zurita
The focus of this project is the investigation in flight performance of ram-air parachutes using Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD). The modeling of a ram-air parachute presents challenges in the prediction of the in-flight geometry, as there is a strong interaction between the flow field and parachute structure. Methods were developed to approximate the geometry and efficiently model the parachute as a rigid body.
