  • Repeating EventSystem Safety SSC 24-2

    Wed, Mar 13, 2024 @ 08:00 AM - 04:00 PM

    Aviation Safety and Security Program

    University Calendar


    Instruction is given in system safety engineering and management, emphasizing complex, high-technology systems. Engineering methods are illustrated with practical, numerical examples. The principal system safety analysis method is taught with classroom and homework problems. The preparation of a system safety program plan and management of the system safety process in all phases of the system life are examined in depth. A classroom project allows students to apply system safety management and engineering methods while working as a team. Enrichment lectures in special areas of knowledge essential to the system safety process will also be presented. Each student should bring a calculator with statistical functions.

    Speaker: Ishwar K. Puri, Professor of Aerospace and Mechanical Engineering

    Talk Title: Playing with Magnets

    Abstract: Control over coalescing particles as they interact, grow, and form patterns leads to a wide array of life science and nanotechnology applications. We consider engineered clusters, such as annuli, spheroids, and organoids, that better mimic in vitro physiological constructs than 1D monolayer structures. Here, we describe a macroscale contactless and label-free field-guided magnetic method that prints in-situ three-dimensional particle assemblies of different morphologies and sizes using non-adherent cells (RBCs) and adherent cells, such as MCF-7, over relatively short timespans. Potential applications of the method include biosensing, high-throughput drug testing, and other patient-specific treatments.

    Biography: Ishwar K. Puri is professor of aerospace and mechanical engineering at the University of Southern California. He is a fellow of the Canadian Academy of Engineering, the American Association for the Advancement of Science and the American Society of Mechanical Engineers, and holds the Engineering Medal for Engineering Excellence awarded by Professional Engineers Ontario and the Ontario Society of Professional Engineers. Puri is the author of over 200 archival publications and books that have been cited over 9,400 times per Google Scholar with an H-Index of 54, and is ranked among the top 2% of scientists in the world based on the citations publications between 1965-2019. He has founded and mentored startups. He also oversees the USC Office of Research and Innovation that guides the university’s research programs.

  • Repeating EventSafety Management for Remotely Piloted Aircraft RPSM 24-2

    Wed, Mar 13, 2024 @ 04:00 PM - 04:00 PM

    Aviation Safety and Security Program

    University Calendar


    This Safety Management for Remotely Piloted Aircraft (RPSM) course is intended for students who know remotely piloted vehicle operations or are looking to understand the current operational conditions for RPAs. Experts from RPA Human Factors, RPA Safety Management Systems, and RPA Piloting introduce students to the theory and application unique to unmanned aircraft. By addressing the characteristics that differ between manned and unmanned air vehicles, the course applies the latest approaches to accident investigation and Safety Management. Students come away with a working knowledge of the safety field pertaining to Remotely Piloted Aircraft, which they can apply to their organization’s operations and future planning.
