    • Aerodynamic Design for Swept-wing Laminar Flow 
      Belisle, Michael Joseph (2013-11-08)
      This work describes and compares processes for swept-wing laminar flow control (SWLFC) aerody-namic design. It focuses on results obtained during the preliminary outer-mold-line (OML) design of the Subsonic Aircraft ...
    • Automatic Multiagent Aircraft Collision Avoidance 
      Sayahi, Shayan (2014-09-22)
      In recent years, there have been incentives to move towards the Free Flight concept in aviation due to advances in technology and increasing air traffic. Free Flight proposes a distributed cooperative strategy based on ...

      Security efforts at airports have increased globally to prevent terrorist attacks, but it might be possible to use an aircraft as a radiological dispersion device. By placing 210Po in the environmental control system of a ...
    • Weight-Optimized Design of a Carbon Fiber Axial Flux Rotor for Aviation-Grade Electric Motors 
      Wiley, Chase Brantley (2022-12-10)
      This thesis presents a complete structural design process of a rotor for a 250-kW dual rotor axial flux motor suited for single-aisle 150-200 passenger aircraft like the Boeing 737. The initial design space with geometric ...
