Course Catalog Description
This course introduces mathematical engineering concepts and a wide range of analysis and design techniques of relevance to aerospace engineering via approximately 3-week modules covering the following topics: dynamics and control of a small quad-rotor aircraft; dynamics of elliptic, hyperbolic, and parabolic orbits, including rendezvous of objects in the same circular orbit; control volume analysis of a rocket engine; sling-shot effect to drive space probes into space; thermal control in outer space; optimization of airfoils using morphing techniques; rapid prototyping-assisted design of lightweight materials.
