Automotive autonomy technology is changing economies and global industries — and is also a driving force behind military modernization. Bringing these self-driving vehicles to life on- and off-road requires new concepts and algorithms to be tested expeditiously and cost-effectively — all of which happen through virtual prototyping. Assistant Professor, Dr. Laura Redmond is heading up […]
Professor Melissa Sternhagen has been an essential part of the Glenn Department of Civil Engineering since she arrived in 2008. She began teaching the core sophomore level classes, Statics, Dynamics, and more recently Structural Mechanics, courses recognized as the foundation of civil engineering. Even though teaching Statics and Dynamics may not be the most exciting courses […]
