Performance envelopes for preliminary sizing of aircraft structures
… on the concepts of characteristic loads and performance envelopes. The characteristic loads are a small set of linearly independent loads acting on the aircraft, identified using Singular Value Decomposition (SVD), which can represent all the load cases of interest. Performance envelopes are …

Analytical investigation of active control of radiated inlet noise from turbofan engines
… the controlled radiated sound field. The performance of selected system configurations are discussed and the sensitivity to system parameter variation to the control of inlet noise is explored. Reductions in the radiated sound power level of 4 to nearly 28 dB is demonstrated. It is also …

Asteroid deflection campaign design integrating epistemic uncertainty
… mission turns out to perform best. The performance envelopes of these different approaches are superposed to generate a decision map for use as a visual aid. Finally, this thesis concludes by outlining future work to refine the framework, as well as potential uses of the methodology in …

Between the Lines: Encoding Relations Through Body, Tool, and Algorithm
… as the site of intervention. Motion data and performance envelopes surrounding our tools extend beyond the projective reenactment of the machine and offer us a means to measure the derivative of what it takes to produce a drawing, a surface, or a construction. This thesis dislocates the spline …

Solid-State Flow Control for Ion Electrospray Propulsion
… shortcomings. First, the analysis of performance envelopes for an electrowetting flow control device. Second, design, fabrication, and testing of the devices to compare with model predictions. Third, creating a new emitter material to couple with the flow controller in order to …
