Modeling and sensitivity analysis of aircraft geometry for multidisciplinary optimization problems (Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2012)A new geometry management paradigm for aircraft design utilizes Computer Aided Design (CAD) systems as the source for consistent geometry models across design phases and analysis tools. Yet various challenges inhibit the ...

(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2007)In daily life, animals including humans make a wide repertoire of limb movements effortlessly without consciously thinking about joint trajectories or muscle contractions. These movements are the outcome of a series of ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2009)Given advanced technology that relieves the human operator of low-level tasking and the future vision for network-centric operations, operator supervisory control of Unmanned Vehicle (UV) teams is likely to be a focal point ...

(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2007)Hall thrusters and other types of electric propulsion have become a tempting alternative to traditional chemical propulsion systems for in-space applications due to the high specific impulses (Isp) they provide. Large Isp ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2013)Recent advances in autonomy have enabled a future vision of single operator control of multiple heterogeneous Unmanned Vehicles (UVs). Real-time scheduling for multiple UVs in uncertain environments will require the ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2006)Cognitive projection enables the operator of a supervisory control system, such as air traffic control, to use predicted future behavior of the system to make decisions about if and how to control the system. New procedures ...

(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2008)The work described in this thesis centers on inertialess motion at low Reynolds numbers at the crossroad between biofluids and microfluids. Here we address questions regarding locomotion of micro-swimmers, transport of ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2009)Introduction: We are required on a daily basis to estimate our position and motion in space by centrally combining noisy, incomplete, and potentially conflicting or ambiguous, information from both sensory sources (e.g. ...
