A mathematical framework is presented to guide the search for Rayleigh waves in lattice materials based on periodic structure theory and the Bloch theorem. Architected materials with a periodic microstructure […]
The increasing demand for lightweight, multifunctional structures in aerospace and civil engineering applications has driven significant interest in hyperelastic composite laminates. These materials, capable of undergoing large deformations while maintaining […]
Due to increased human activity in the last two decades, near-earth space has become congested from functional/non-functional satellites and space debris. These space objects of human origin, along with natural […]
Fluid flows in nature and engineering exhibit a wide range of spatial and temporal scales. This talk presents two problems across this range: compressible turbulence in channel flows and large-scale […]
Abstract: Games with asymmetric information involve situations where one player possesses knowledge that the other player does not. This is particularly evident in military engagements, where the “fog of war” […]
In diverse domains of engineering and high-performance applications, the use of Fiber-Reinforced Polymer Matrix Composites (FRPMCs) and Metal Matrix Composites (MMCs) has experienced rapid and sustained growth. This trend is […]
The exploration of deep space relies on advanced astrodynamics techniques to navigate complex gravitational environments. This presentation examines key applications in space mission design, with particular emphasis on the circular […]
Robotic swarms offer immense potential for critical operations such as search and rescue, surveillance, and environmental monitoring, owing to their distributed nature and redundancy. However, the operational reliability of swarms […]
AI in general and Agentic AI Frameworks in particular have begun to appear in safety critical and mission critical application of autonomous systems. Assurance of their behavior lags behind in […]
As civil and military aircraft evolve toward increasingly complex designs and intelligent systems, understanding pilot–vehicle interactions and their impact on safety and performance remains essential. Rotorcraft shipboard landing is among […]
Boundary layer (BL) transition to turbulence occurs through the inception, growth, and merging of turbulent spots. Understanding these spots is vital for predicting aerodynamic performance in disturbance-dominated environments like gas […]
Protective structures and vessels used in marine and defense applications are increasingly required to withstand extreme dynamic loading caused by explosions in air and underwater. Designing lightweight yet resilient structures […]
