Raffaele Baggi, a Ph.D. student in ME, was awarded a fellowship by the Aero NASA Institute to support his work on the Prandtl-M project, a collaboration with the NASA Armstrong Flight Research Center.
The Prandtl-M, or Preliminary Research Aerodynamic Design To Land on Mars, aims at developing a small UAV glider that will be potentially the first airplane in the atmosphere of Mars. Raffaele is designing the flight control system of the airplane using a custom-developed flight simulator based on the the UAV aerodynamic parameters and hardware in loop simulation techniques.
