Infos

Dr. Parvathy has been a lecturer of aerospace engineering at Universiti Sains Malaysia since 2013. She completed her Ph.D. degree in aerospace engineering at Cranfield University, UK, in October 2012. Her research includes UAV design, development, and flight testing and UAV system development and testing. She has served as a systems and flight test engineer in various UAV projects in the UK, and all of these UAVs were successfully flown. Her appointment as the head of System and Design Research Cluster and as the laboratory manager of UAV Laboratory in the School of Aerospace Engineering is further recognition of her credibility. As a young research academician, she has produced numerous high-impact publications. She was appointed by a few international journals as the editor in chief, international advisor, and reviewer board member. She has also served on the technical conference committee of various international conferences. In addition, she has maintained various grants amounting to a total of more than RM 1 million. She has contributed much to the development of human capital. Her active involvement in teaching, research, consultancy, and service to the university and community emphasize her enthusiastic academician nature and her high potential to contribute to the field of aerospace engineering. Aerospace science and technology have made remarkable progress in the last century. Although a few publications have been written on this topic, most are inadequate in elucidating the various advanced technologies developed in recent years. For this reason, publishing a book in which prominent researchers elaborate and discuss their research efforts in conjunction with other efforts seems logical. In this book, the most accurate and current materials were gathered, reviewed, and presented by an exceptional group of experts. This book presents state-of-the-art, current developments and applications in aerospace. This is an edited book composed of the following chapters:Chapter One: Aeroelasticity: An OverviewChapter Two: Nanocomposites in Aerospace StructureChapter Three: Fire Structural Behavior of Aerospace CompositesChapter Four: Implementation of Biofuel in Aircraft EnginesChapter Five: Aircraft Mission Profile Analysis and Trajectory OptimizationChapter Six: Controller Design for a Hybrid UAVChapter Seven: Magnetic Attitude Control of a Small SatelliteChapter Eight: CubeSat Technology in Satellite DevelopmentChapter Nine: Ionosphere Perturbation Modeling in an Equatorial Region through Electromagnetic Wave PropagationChapter Ten: Computer Simulation of Membrane Airfoil with Fluid/Structure InteractionTarget Audience:This book provides a quick read for experts, researchers as well as novices in the field of aerospace research, science, technology, applications, theory and trends in research. The relevant subjects' areas includes mechanical engineering, material sciences, computational engineering and system design.
