No more roads less travelled?
Get to know mechanical engineering student Gavin Kenneally and his concept for a revolutionary lateral active suspension system for vehicles. With the guidance from Concordia's HYbrid CONtrol Systems (HYCONS) laboratory Director Luis Rodrigues, this idea may well transform the way we travel on varied and unpredictable terrain.
Like a Shark Through Water
UA researchers are studying fast-swimming sharks to learn the secrets of designing drag resistant vehicle design.

Aircraft Systems Engineering
offers a holistic view of the aircraft as a system, covering: basic systems engineering; cost and weight estimation; basic aircraft performance; safety and reliability; lifecycle topics; aircraft subsystems; risk analysis and management; and system realization. It offers study of both design and operations of the shuttle, with frequent lectures by outside experts. Students choose specific shuttle systems for detailed analysis and develop new subsystem designs using state of the art technology. http://ocw.mit.edu
