Qi (Terry) Song will be defending his PhD dissertation, "Closed-Loop Control of Flow-Induced Cavity Oscillations" on Thursday, March 27 at 9:00am in MAE-A 221. All are welcome to attend and refreshments will be served.
Philip Cunio, an IMG alumnus, is now a student in the Department of Aeronautics and Astronautics at MIT. He and another MIT student are living inside a Mars simulator in Utah to try to understand the technological and psychological issues that a crew on Mars will someday face. For more information see the webcam and Philip's blog.
