Welcome to the Computational Design Laboratory website. We are in the J. Mike Walker ’66 Department of Mechanical Engineering at Texas A&M University in the College of Engineering, and a part of the Engineering Systems Design Group.
Research Overview
Our research focuses on advancing fundamental computational methodology for the design, analysis, and operation of complex engineered systems. We are currently using our tools to address challenges in enabling self-aware unmanned aerial vehicles and their use within intelligent sensor swarms, exploiting the breadth of available information sources for conceptual design of advanced aircraft, predictive analytics for gas turbine engines using machine learning, and the autonomous design and discovery of materials and material systems.
