Aerospace System Development Certificate
Aerospace system development engineers often work in research and develop new technologies for aviation, defense systems and space exploration.
Aerospace system development usually involves the design, manufacture, performance monitoring, regulation, testing, repair, maintenance and upgrading of aircraft and spacecraft and their systems.
One of the most exciting aspects of aerospace system development involves the creation of advanced aerospace systems.
Advanced aerospace systems covers research areas such as aerodynamics, aeroacoustics, combustion, flight mechanics, dynamics, and propulsion and power.
For example, research efforts in aerodynamics, aeroacoustics, fluid dynamics and flow control span a comprehensive range of problems in a wide range of speed regimes with emphasis on tightly integrated experimental and modeling thrusts including:
- Static and dynamic stall relevant to rotorcraft operations
- Jets for commercial and military aircraft
- Bluff body flows pertinent to turret and other applications
- Cavity flow for scramjet flow paths
- Shock/turbulent interactions in supersonic aircraft
Flight mechanics, dynamics and control research is another area receiving a lot of attention in the aerospace system development realm. This area focuses on robust flight control systems analysis and design using a state space interval parameter matrix and ecological qualitative stability techniques.
Aerospace engineering also studies the stability and performance of nonlinear flight dynamics of reusable space access vehicles, as well as satellite formation control.
Dynamics and controls thrust research normally aims at engine area networks which coordinate sensor and actuator data through a controller, successfully managing deployment while reducing weight and life cycle costs and improving performance.
Another well-regarded area of advanced aerospace systems is fluid-structure interaction which involves high fidelity and reduced order computational modeling of fluid-structure centric problems, as well as model reduction and partitioned time marching of multi-physical systems.
Sometimes the area of research under aerospace system development is very specific. For example, some aerospace system development engineers are now working on ways to teach drones how to navigate in bad weather and high winds. Right now, drones are either flown under controlled conditions, with no wind, or are operated by humans using remote controls.
However, for drones to autonomously perform necessary but quotidian tasks, such as delivering packages or airlifting injured drivers from a traffic accident, drones must be able to adapt to wind conditions in real time (i.e., rolling with the punches, meteorologically speaking).
To face this challenge, a team of engineers from Caltech has developed Neural-Fly, a deep-learning method that can help drones cope with new and unknown wind conditions in real time just by updating a few key parameters.
