Yishai Glam | The aeroelastic stability and dynamic response of thin panels are important considerations in aerospace structures design. Traditional nonlinear Rayleigh-Ritz (RR) analysis struggles when applied to panels with nonuniform boundary conditions (BCs) or local constraints. Generating the necessary global basis functions is difficult, often leading to slow convergence and requiring many modes.
Bar Gawi | Hypersonic gliding vehicles (HGVs) operate in flight regimes characterized by nonlinear dynamics, significant aerodynamic uncertainties, and strong coupling between vehicle motions. These characteristics pose challenges for flight control design, particularly when tracking performance must be maintained despite model inaccuracies, changing flight conditions, and practical implementation limitations.
Nadav Mailhot | Although satellite orbit propagation is one of the oldest problems in artificial satellite theory, there are still remaining challenges related to propagation speed and precision. In this talk, a new semianalytical orbit propagation method is designed to account for conservative perturbing forces
Pavel Galich | B.Sc. and M.Sc. in Applied Mathematics and Physics, Department of Aerophysics and Space Research, Moscow Institute of Physics and Technology (2012 and 2014). Ph.D. in Aerospace Engineering, Technion (2018). Postdoctoral Research Associate, Department of Materials Science; NanoEngineering (MSNE), Rice University (2018-2020). Assistant Professor at the Technion since 2020.
Dor Naftaly | Modern aircraft designs are trending toward increasingly lightweight, high-aspect-ratio, and highly flexible configurations for improved aerodynamic efficiency and performance. As structural flexibility increases, the traditional separation between flight dynamics and aeroelasticity becomes less valid: elastic deformations influence rigid-body motion, and maneuver-induced accelerations and loads impact the structural response. This study investigates the coupled flight dynamics and aeroelastic behavior of flexible aircraft, focusing on the effects of maneuvering on flutter instability.
Din Ben Adva | The talk presents two recent studies examining the emergence of corner-flow circulation in confined geometries at highly rarefied conditions, where the characteristic length scale is comparable to the molecular mean free path of the gas.
