Aerodynamics

Responsibilities

• Perform design and analysis of aerodynamic and aerothermodynamic flight vehicles.
• Develop new and improve existing technologies, tools, and processes to enhance technology readiness, improve vehicle performance, and reduce cycle time and cost.
• Develop test requirements (e.g., wind tunnel, ground, flight, accident and incident, and product support testing of aerodynamics or aeroheating and thermal characteristics) of flight vehicles.

Preferred Majors

Aerodynamics, Mechanical

Propulsion: Air Breathing and Rocket

Responsibilities

• Define requirements for propulsion systems, auxiliary power systems, and vehicle fuel and tank systems.
• Define, coordinate, and control the functional and physical interfaces between the propulsion system and the vehicle.
• Document configurations and designs of propulsion subsystems and components.
• Estimate or calculate system performance by use of various testing, analysis, modeling, and simulation tools.
