Autonomous Flight, Fault, and Energy Management of the Flying Fish Solar-Powered Seaplane.
(2012)
The Flying Fish autonomous unmanned seaplane is designed and built for persistent ocean surveillance. Solar energy harvesting and always-on autonomous control and guidance are required to achieve unattended long-term ...
Aerodynamics, Scaling, and Performance of a Flexible Flapping Wing.
(2011)
Effects of flexibility on the force generation and the propulsive efficiency of flapping flexible wings are elucidated. First, based on a control volume analysis around a moving body immersed in viscous fluid, different ...
Experimental Study of Shock-train/Combustion Coupling and Flame Dynamics in a Heated Supersonic Flow.
(2012)
Isolator/combustor interactions are measured in a direct-connect dual-mode ramjet-scramjet experiment. An operating point approach is used to create a mapping of the coupling effects between the isolator geometry, inlet ...
Plume-Surface Interactions due to Spacecraft Landings and The Discovery of Water on Mars.
(2010)
Pulsed supersonic jets or rocket plumes have different surface flow physics than steady jets, in particular in tenuous atmospheres such as that of Mars where jets are collimated over large distances compared to their ...
Supporting Trust Calibration and Attention Management in Human-Machine Teams Through Training and Real-Time Feedback on Estimated Performance
(2022)
Trust, the attitude that an agent will help achieve an individual’s goals in a situation characterized by uncertainty and vulnerability (Lee & See, 2004), plays a critical role in supervisory control and human-machine ...
