The main objective of the Aerospace Systems Laboratory (ASL) is to conduct research in modeling, simulation, control and estimation of mechanical and aerospace systems from a systems perspective. Over the past few years, we have looked at diverse mechanical and aerospace systems. Our theoretical contributions, numerical simulations, algorithms, and software span several applications:
Flight dynamics and control; unmanned vehicle systems; morphing wing aircraft structures; air traffic management; reduced order modeling of fluid-structure interactions; cooperative control of large scale interconnected systems subject to communication delays; multi-sensor fusion applied to aircraft guidance and spacecraft navigation; bipedal locomotion; and uncertainty characterization in orbital mechanics.
Over the years, these have resulted in several book chapters, journal and conference publications. You can view a list of all publications on the Google Scholar page . They are also summarized as year-wise list of publications followed by an overview of the research topics studied at ASL.
For Prospective Students
For High School Students : If you plan to learn about research in my lab and get some hands on experience, please feel free to email me. Take a look at this “Required Documentation” page first.
For Undergraduate students (Juniors/Seniors): A limited number of research projects are available throughout the year and I encourage you to set up an appointment with me to discuss the projects.
For Graduate Students (MS/PhD): I post Research Assistantship positions on this page from time to time. The following applies in general to all current students at UTA or those planning planning to apply for a graduate program at UTA and would like to work in ASL (Aerospace Systems Laboratory),
- Take a look at my web page (https://websites.uta.edu/subbarao). Some of the research areas I am interested in are summarized there.
- In case you have prior experience in any of the areas mentioned in the research page (including but not limited to projects, papers etc) and you are applying for the PhD program in MAE, please send me an email. Describe briefly your specific interests related to the topics and what you have done in the area. If you have papers published, please include links from where I can get them. In your email, you should also include your GRE scores and Grade Point Average or equivalent. Finally, please submit all the information via this form, https://common.forms.uta.edu/view.php?id=1332433
- If you are applying for the MS program and would like to work with me, indicate so in your statement of purpose. Alternatively, set up an appointment and talk with me after you reach UTA. You need not send me an elaborate email.
I receive several emails from prospective students and don’t always reply to all of them. I apologize for that.
