Think of them as master Lego builders, only at an atomic scale. Engineers at ÀÏ¾ÅÆ·²è have taken a major step forward in combing advanced computer simulations with artificial intelligence to try to predict how electronics, like the transistors
Pawel Sawicki, a PhD student in the Ann and H.J. Smead Department of Aerospace Engineering Sciences at ÀÏ¾ÅÆ·²è, is the lead author on a paper that recently won the AIAA Thermophysics Best Student Paper award at SciTech 2021. The article – titled
Robyn Macdonald is pushing the frontiers of extremely high speed research: hypersonics. A new assistant professor in the Ann and H.J. Smead Department of Aerospace Engineering Sciences at the ÀÏ¾ÅÆ·²è, Macdonald joins a growing
Iain Boyd has an unusual specialty: He studies the insanely fast. The aerospace engineer specializes in hypersonic flight—or when vehicles hit speeds of roughly 4,000 miles per hour or more, the kind of conditions that spacecraft face when they’
New findings from ÀÏ¾ÅÆ·²è researchers in Physical Review Applied show that nanoscale structures on the surfaces of silicon membranes can significantly change the way that heat travels through the bulk of the membrane. This work could make
Fourteen university innovators including Smead Aerospace's Mahmoud Hussein and Scott Palo pitched their technologies at Lab Venture Challenge (LVC), a funding competition hosted by Venture Partners at ÀÏ¾ÅÆ·²è that helps
Timothy K. Minton is expanding critical research at the edge of space – uncovering chemical and physical processes in extreme environments like those experienced by satellites in Low Earth Orbit and hypersonic vehicles.A new
As we practice distancing for the greater good, we also want to stay connected and be available to our students, both prospective and admitted. We might be far from you, but we’re still here to connect. Whether you're celebrating acceptance or
The College of Engineering and Applied Science moved up three places in this year U.S. News and World Reports Best Graduate Schools rankings, coming in at No. 14 among public institutions and No. 27 overall. Three engineering degree programs
Aerospace has a new home at ÀÏ¾ÅÆ·²è. The Ann and H.J. Smead Department of Aerospace Engineering Sciences has moved into its new dedicated building on East Campus. Eighteen months after construction began, the four-story, 175,000-square-foot
