In this episode meet Carson Slabaugh, an AAE assistant professor. He'll share how he started on a path toward aerospace engineering and about his current propulsion and combustion research.

Dengfeng Sun says, "To the best of my knowledge, Purdue’s School of Aeronautics and Astronautics is among the first academic units to investigate this approach."

Steven Collicott will receive four separate grants totaling $1.8 million for four different experiments under NASA’s Tech Flights solicitation.

Purdue and Notre Dame are pairing their extensive hypersonics research and facilities to improve the technology’s next generation of high-speed vehicles capable of flying at Mach 5 and beyond as part of a $5.8-million program supported by the Air Force Research Laboratory (AFRL).

Using computational tools to mathematically simulate and track material microstructures and defects to address their probability of failure during operation.

Subsurface soil moisture, the water available to plants for absorption at the root level, needs to be measured accurately for food production vital to a growing global population.

Purdue’s Computational Energy & Propulsion Lab (CEPL) is working on developing accurate and efficient computational models for combustion processes.

With the one-day event being moved to a virtual format, registration didn't need to be capped. That means more than 4,000 kids get to participate.

School of Aeronautics and Astronautics faculty are tasked with planning aerodynamics and propulsion testing programs that will use the extreme test conditions that HYPULSE can create. Joseph Jewell will focus on aerodynamics testing programs, and Carson Slabaugh will work with propulsion projects.

AAE Professor Vikas Tomar and collaborators from the Air Force Research Laboratory and the Army Research Laboratory co-hosted the Polymer Composite Materials for the Energetic Materials Workshop.
