AAE Distinguished Alumni

Purdue alumni play key leadership roles within all aspects of

the aerospace world and provide the world with engineers

who have designed, built, tested and flown the many vehicles

that have changed the face of both flight and space

exp orat on ur ng t e century an at t e start o t s

second century of flight.

Purdue has an impressive group of alumni including 22

graduates selected as NASA astronauts with 14 graduating

from the school of Aeronautics and Astronautics. Arguably

the most famous are Neil Armstrong and Eugene Cernan who

are the first and last men on the moon.

Our Facilities

The Neil Armstrong Hall of Engineering

Dedicated in the presence of 16 Purdue astronaut

alumni in October 2007, Armstrong Hall provides 21st

.

A key feature of Armstrong Hall is the concept of Team

Learning Modules, where students will experience the

entire engineering life-cycle.

This concept addresses a common theme emanatingfrom alumni and industry advisors the demand for

engineers who have traditional technical expertise

along with design and build experience, often on

industrial scale projects, and who can work in diverse

teams.


22/35


Our Facilities

Aerodynamics

Experimental facilities include: Four wind

tunnels located at the Aerospace Sciences

Laboratory (ASL).

eorge a mer ac n unne

Purdue maintains the only quiet-flow facility inthe world capable at operating at Mach 6.

Capable of conducting experiments to yield

critical data the Mach 6 nozzle is polished to a

near perfect mirror finish.

Experiments have been conducted to yield data for designing advanced missiles

such as the Falcon HTV-2 and an advanced aircraft called the X-51A, which is

powered by scramjets. The X-51 project is led by the Air Force Research

Laboratory and the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency


23/35


Our Facilities

Aerodynamics

A four-story high drop tower is nearing completion to

be used for unique experimentation within the

Aerospace Two-Phase Flow Lab. This unique feature of

and students to explore the effects of microgravity onphysical phenomena such as combustion and fluid

dynamics.

In this way, they will perform experiments in conditions

identical to those in the International Space Station, yetonly for two seconds. Two seconds is sufficiently long

for valuable experimentation - note that experiments in

Professor Collicott's previous 1-second tower led to a

highly successful experiment in the International Space

Station.

25/35


Our Facilities

Radio Navigation Laboratory

Provides resources for the experimental

anal sis and stud of s ace-based radio

transmissions for navigation and remotesensing.

The lab has the ability to receive all

currently transmitting GNSS signals through

a Leica AR25 antenna on the roof ofArmstrong Hall


26/35


Our Facilities

Dynamics and Control

Current research is divided into aircraft

desi n for im roved handlin ualities

astrodynamics, robust and nonlinear controltheory and applications, estimated theory

and applications, dynamics and control of

flexible spacecraft, mission design, modeling

and control of aeroelastic aircraft, spacecraft

maneuvers and trajectory analysis andoptimization.

The Control Systems Laboratory (CSL) contains four Dell computer based

acquisition and control systems.


27/35


Our Facilities

Propulsion

The propulsion group have unique facilities

for the stud of rocket ro ulsion and

energy conversion. The labs are based at theMaurice Zucrow Laboratory (MZL) and the

Aerospace Sciences Laboratory (ASL).

The test cells at MZL are poured, reinforced

concrete design with containment steel

doors and explosive rated viewing windows.These cells are classed for both Class 1.1 and

1.3 explosives.


28/35


Our Facilities

The Composite Materials Laboratory

The McDonnell Douglas Composite

Materials Laborator was started in 1973 b

Dr. C.T. Sun who remains its director.

The lab is used for research in composite

materials and structures and has facilities for

preparing materials and specimens, testing

and inspection. The autoclave provides pressure,

vacuum, temperature, and time

controls for cure cycles in making

polymeric composites.


29/35


Our Facilities

The Fatigue and Fracture Laboratory

Approx 1200 Sq Ft is designed to conduct research directed at evaluating

the dama e tolerance ro erties of materials and com onents.

The lab is well equipped to conduct structural integrity motivated

research directed at evaluating the damage tolerant properties of

materials and components. Two computer-controlled electro-hydraulic

test machines (11,000 and 22,000 lb. capacity) and associated

equipment are used to measure fracture loads and to study fatigue crackformation.


30/35


Our Facilities

Structural Dynamics Laboratory

The 1400 Sq Ft Structural Dynamics provides

students with a hands-on opportunity for the

most state-of-the-art technologies and

cutt ng-e ge tec n ques.

The lab has the latest equipment for

recording ultra-dynamic events. Major

equipment includes Norland and Nicolet

digital recorders, a one-million-frame-per-

second dynamic camera, impact gun, andvarious computer peripherals for date

acquisition.

Primary research interest is in the impact of structures and

the analysis of consequent stress waves.


31/35


Our Facilities

Interfacial Multiphysics Laboratory

The focus of the lab are on problems related to

thermomechanical behavior of ceramics and

sem con uc or ma er a s an c emo- o-mec an cs

of organics-ceramic materials. The lab is directed byDr. Vikas Tomar.

The lab also owns a 400 processor supercomputer

cluster as well as access to Tera-Grid for high

performance computing through the Purdue RosenCenter for Advanced Computing.
