STEM is for everyone! Thank you, Office of Naval Research and Naval STEM! Your support enabled the HITES12 program at the Tickle College of Engineering at the University of Tennessee, allowing Trenton Henderson and me to mentor and give four rising high school students valuable research experience. In one week, they learned to analyze the aerodynamic efficiency of formation flights using theories and CFD tools (e.g., Cadence Fidelity CFD and Pointwise, Inc.). Finally, thank you, Trenton, for your leadership! #stem #cfd #aerospace #utk #HITES12 #PreCollegePrograms #EngineeringFuture
Thank you both for your #VolunteerSpirit and encouraging future #EngineringVols! 🎉
A big thank you to Office of Naval Research, Naval STEM, and Dr. Sanjaya for the valuable opportunity! It was a great week getting to equip the next generation of engineers!
Bravo Zulu NRL and Naval STEM
Congratulations!

4wAh, these high school students were so close to becoming university interns but not before I retired in 2024. They could have studied 'stealth aircraft design' under myself and others at Lockheed Martin Skunk Works in Palmdale, California. We utilized some of the same CFD software tools and CEM codes as well. Fear not, I passed my knowledge onto a new generation of engineers and scientists! These new STEM students will have to learn to put up with bureaucratic management in both industry and government, if they want a job for a career. 😎
