Data ProcessingPIVLab is an open-source toolbox for MATLAB that processes the images captured andprovides quantitative information about the flow. A selected sequence of frames are importedinto PIVLlab where preprocessing options such as masking can be done. The program calculatesvelocity vectors based on the displacement of particles between image pairs, and a vector map issuperimposed over the interrogation windows. A calibration image is required to tell thesoftware the relationship between pixels and physical space. Post-processing options such asvector validation can be done to exclude erroneous vectors, and blank spaces can be filled

I have always considered myself to be alearner by doing and finally having a class in college where I am allowed to implement the things I learnin the class room is very exciting and exactly what I looked forward to getting out of this class at thebeginning of the semester.” - Chris B“I think having the homework assignmentss be as challenging as they were, helped me to study and retainthe material more than I would have for an exam. Overall, I enjoyed the course and really hope I canbeneficially utilize a good deal of this information in the future.” - Austin O“I really like how you gave us real data to analyze in our homework; it was really

. Three separate andindependent groups of students are recruited for the study. Group distribution is shown as a Venndiagram in Figure 1. Group A is presented with written literature to review before the flight. Theliterature defines the functions of the flight simulator, flight controls, aircraft principles,instruments and the required mission details. They are then asked to fly the mission with minimalassistance during the flight portion. They are free to ask questions during the flight. Group B is notpresented with any literature for review before the flight. A short presentation is given to them thatdescribes the flight controls, basic instruments and the mission. Their first real exposure to theflight is when they get on the simulator and

large fixed-wing UAS, known as theMeridian, was developed using Advanced Aircraft Analysis (AAA). The Meridian is a 1,100 lbUAS that was designed, manufactured, and flight tested by the KUAE department. The dynamicmodel of the Meridian was investigated over a broad range of Mach numbers and flight altitudes.The dynamic model for the UAS was verified with actual flight tests [14]. Figure 2: Dynamic Modeling of Meridian UAS (Ref. 14)b) Effects of Winglets on Small Unmanned Aerial SystemsAlthough the benefits of winglets on the fuel efficiency, takeoff, and climb performance of largetransportation aircraft have been extensively investigated and documented, their impact on smallUASs have not been widely modeled.

Teams were asked on the first day to sign a TeamPolicies and Expectations Contract to select leadership roles on the team: Coordinator, Recorder,Monitor, or Checker. Each designated role came with responsibilities. This also was not popular.For the most part, students felt the course met their expectations and they felt confident in theirunderstanding of airplanes. They stated the material was presented at the appropriate level. Table 1 – General Questions a. The course met my expectations. 4.32 b. I feel confident in my understanding of 4.06 Aeronautics. c.

design to develop a clear,concise set of requirements. Because those requirements can and often do change – an eventcalled “creep” – this uncertainty increases the risk at the beginning of the design process. Theinability to manage uncertainty during the initial stages of design can lead to cost overruns,scheduling slips, re-designs, or program cancellation [3]. The ability to add information in theearly stages of conceptual design can decrease the risk during the design process and increase thelikelihood of success [4].Creep and uncertainty have affected the development times of major programs since the 1970s[3]. Recent large-scale programs have averaged 14.2 years for systems such as the F-35 JointStrike Fighter, the F-22 Raptor, and the B-2
