Benedict, Moble Associate Professor

Generate disruptive and revolutionary innovations through opportunity-driven, inter-disciplinary, fundamental research related to the broad areas of aeromechanics, design, development, and autonomous control of high performance next-generation vertical flight concepts, green aviation, aircraft concepts for planetary exploration, high efficiency wind/tidal turbines, and uncrewed underwater vehicles. Integrate experiments and computational analyses to advance fundamental understanding and its application to real-life problems, and to tackle multi-disciplinary barrier problems, generate high-level scholarly work, and create a team environment for research productivity and learning.
