Harsh Mathur
Research Interests: I am primarily interested in aerodynamics and the interactions between aerodynamic forces and material properties. I'm actively pursuing research with Professor Earl Dowell and Eric Huang on the experimental study of classic linear divergence models. When aerodynamic forces [...]
Sanjeev Chauhan
Research Interests: Sanjeev is performing Computational Fluid Dynamics simulations aimed at exploring buffet in transonic flow. Buffet is often explored with the Navier-Stokes equations, but those are computationally intensive. On the other hand, the Euler Equations, which are [...]
Emily Dunn
Research Interests: Emily has been researching nonlinear fluid dynamics in experiments on Faraday wave patterns and walking droplets in the context of hydrodynamic quantum analogs. She uses a subwoofer to vibrate a bath of silicon oil with experiment-specific container topography and documents [...]
Trey Fitzpatrick
Research Interests: Joining in the Fall of 2025, Trey has been working on developing structural models of truss-braced wings. He is interested in exploring elastic buckling in strut-braced wings as well as vibrational analysis and hammer testing of the novel wing concept.
Rohan Joshi
Research Interests: Joining in Spring of 2025, Rohan has been conducting computational fluid dynamics (CFD) analyses to study rocket stability under wind gust disturbances during ascent. His work leverages Ansys Fluent and other computing tools to examine aerodynamics responses and better [...]
Max Rong
Research Interests: Max joined the Aeroelasticity Group in the Spring of 2025 and is conducting modal and structural analysis on beam-stiffened plates with hammer impact testing, comparing experimental modes to theoretical values computed through Rayleigh-Ritz coupling method and finite element [...]
