Mathematics is central to all engineering disciplines, including aerospace engineering. After all, it underpins every computation that allows aerospace engineers to better understand physical situations and optimize aircraft designs. Therefore, it is worth dedicating a week to discuss math. The first main topic of this discussion is calculus, which has two central … [Read more...] about The Mathematics of Aerospace Engineering

An Exploration of XR in Museums
Last week, as I walked through Downtown Santa Monica, a flashy storefront on the side of the street caught my eye. The sign in front read “3DAR Art Museum”. My eyes widened at the beautiful graphics displayed in front of the building: huge dinosaurs looming over museum-goers, magical worlds seemed to be unfolding just beyond those swinging doors. But, as I began to talk with … [Read more...] about An Exploration of XR in Museums
Unlocking the Secrets of Fluid Mechanics: Oil Film Flow Visualization and More
Fluid mechanics has been notoriously difficult to understand. This is primarily because the fundamental equations that describe fluid flow, the Navier-Stokes equations, can be nearly impossible to solve. In the year 2000, the Clay Mathematics Institute offered $1 million to the first person who could prove the existence of well-behaved solutions to the Navier-Stokes equations … [Read more...] about Unlocking the Secrets of Fluid Mechanics: Oil Film Flow Visualization and More
