Full-time
- The Air Force Institute of Technology is offering a faculty fellowship at Wright Patterson Air Force Base.
- As an ORISE participant, you will join the AFIT Graduate School of Engineering and Management Faculty in Hypersonic Vehicle development to configure new geometries, modeling and simulating the vehicle response to aerodynamic, structural, and thermal loading conditions and conducting physical experiments for validation.
- Computer packages such as ABAQUS, NASTRAN, CAPS, MatLab, DAKOTA, Kestrel, FUN3D, etc.
- Computational tools are utilized for predicting aerodynamic pressures using computational fluid dynamics (CFD) and analyze for vehicle stability, survivability, fatigue life and resilience under extreme operating conditions (e.g., high temperature operating conditions, vehicle response to various heat transfer modes).
- Efficiently creating optimized vehicle configurations for shape, size, and topology aspects of hypersonic mission, and consider aerodynamic, thermal, and structural performance requirements in a multidisciplinary optimization environment
