De-orbit time of on-orbit debris for laser-based removal methods
(Univelt, Inc., 2017)The amount of space debris in the near-Earth space environment poses a major challenge for current and future space missions. Controlling the growth of on-orbit debris utilizing on-orbit debris removal missions is of great ... -
A decentralized adaptive control architecture for large-scale active-passive modular systems
(IEEE, 2017-05)Decentralized control of large-scale active-passive modular systems is considered. These systems consist of physically interconnected and generally heterogeneous modules, where local control signals can be only applied to ... -
Demand-side energy management by use of a Design-then-Approximate controller for aggregated thermostatic loads
(IEEE, 2015)This paper presents a method to design a controller for a system of aggregated thermostatic loads (TCLs) that are represented by two coupled Partial Differential Equations - the Fokker-Planck Equations. The design goal is ... -
Demand-side energy management by use of a Design-then-Approximate controller for aggregated thermostatic loads
(IEEE, 2018-07)This brief presents a method to design a controller for a system of aggregated thermostatically controlled loads (TCLs) that are represented by two coupled partial differential equations-the Fokker-Planck equations. The ... -
Design and analysis of composite pipe joints under tensile loading
(Sage, 2000)Composite pipe has been used in transporting corrosive fluid in many chemical processes in the petrochemical and pulp and paper industries. More recently, composite pipe has further gained its importance in the offshore ... -
Design of deep neural networks for transfer time prediction of spacecraft electric orbit-raising
(Elsevier Ltd, 2022-09-01)Recently, there has been a surge in use of electric propulsion to transfer satellites to the geostationary Earth orbit (GEO). Traditionally, the transfer times to reach GEO using all-electric propulsion are obtained by ... -
Design, implementation and experimental testing of an inertial sensor system to quantify wing deflection
(American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics Inc., 2019-01-06)This research investigates a novel approach of using inertial micro-electromechanical sensors in combination with a Kalman state estimator to quantify wing deflection of a highly flexible morphing wing. Motivated by NASA’s ... -
Detached eddy investigation of cavity resonance phenomenon in slender cavities
(AMER INST AERONAUTICS ASTRONAUTICS, 2013-05)Aerodynamic noise generation due to the presence of surface discontinuity has been a topic of research for more than five decades. Most investigations carried out are on cavities ranging from small gaps to large cavities ... -
Detecting first layer bond quality during FDM 3D printing using a discrete wavelet energy approach
(Elsevier, 2020)Fused Deposition Modeling (FDM) is a highly versatile additive manufacturing method for 3D printing thermoplastic-based components at small as well as larger production scales. By combining the filament with fibers from ... -
Development of a high-order solver for blood flow
(Springer International Publishing AG, 2015-01)A high-order solver for the blood flow is developed and analyzed using a two-dimensional backward-facing step. In the first part, a Newtonian steady code to solve the incompressible Navier-Stokes (N-S) equations has been ... -
Dynamics and performance of tailless micro aerial vehicle with flexible articulated wings
(The American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics, 2012-05-05)The purpose of this paper is to analyze and discuss the performance and stability of a tailless micro aerial vehicle with flexible articulated wings. The dihedral angles can be varied symmetrically on both wings to control ... -
Editorial: Message from SAMPE's global president
(SAMPE Publishers, 2015-01)I grew up in SAMPE during the '90s when the glamour of the past was a constant reminder of what had been and in the 00s when the very essence of SAMPE was in peril. Individuals took action and saved our society. In the ... -
Editorial: Message from SAMPE's global president
(SAMPE Publishers, 2015-03)If it has not been apparent through this column, SAMPE has been a significant part of my professional career. Consequently, it has also been a significant part of my life. SAMPE helped me to establish my academic credentials ... -
Editorial: Message from SAMPE's global president
(SAMPE Publishers, 2015-05)One key thing I learned in SAMPE is to always recognize that another colleague has something to contribute. Ours is an experience-heavy profession. We cannot experience the entirety of our world. Thus, others are always ... -
Editorial: Message from SAMPE's global president
(SAMPE Publishers, 2014-09)SAMPE was born among nine individuals working in the aerospace industry in Southern California, a likely place in 1944 for rising concerns on the lack of focus on materials and processing within their industry. It was ... -
