    Aerospace and Mechanical Engineering

    Conferences, Lectures, & Seminars


    Speaker: Aaron Brandis, NASA Ames

    Talk Title: Dragonfly Titan Entry and Descent System and DrEAM Instrumentation Suite

    Abstract: This presentation will discuss the entry and descent phase for the Dragonfly missions arrival at Titan, a moon of Saturn. Dragonfly is a rotorcraft lander mission designed to take advantage of Titan's environment to sample materials and determine surface composition in different geologic settings, and even to search for chemical signatures that could indicate water-based and/or hydrocarbon-based life. The DrEAM instrumentation suite will take measurements of pressure, temperature and heatflux around the aeroshell during the Dragonfly entry.

    Biography: Dr Brandis is a senior research scientist employed by AMA Inc in the Aerothermodynamics branch at NASA Ames Research Center. He is the PI for NASA Entry Systems Modeling project, Dragonfly aerothermal lead and PI for Dragonfly Titan entry instrumentation, known as DrEAM. His research focuses on shock layer radiation with the NEQAIR code and EAST shock tube facility.

    Thomas Lord Department of Computer Science

    Title:
    Reasoning about sets of dynamical systems:
    Identification, adaptive control, and suboptimal coverings

    Abstract:

    Robots often have physical dynamics that are unknown, but belong to a highly structured set. Knowledge of the set structure is useful for designing adaptive mechanisms, especially if synthesizing a good control policy for each system in the set is straightforward. However, when the systems in the set are complex enough to necessitate black-box methods like reinforcement learning, it is less clear how to use knowledge of the set structure. For example, neural network policies that take dynamics parameters as a secondary input fall short of the performance of single-system policies.

    We propose both practical and theoretical inquiries into this difficulty. From the practical side, we propose an alternative to black-box learning methods that combines differentiable simulation, recurrent neural network models, and established methods from nonlinear control. From the theoretical side, we introduce the framework of suboptimal covering numbers to quantify "how much" a good policy must change with respect to dynamics parameters. We bound the suboptimal covering number for a simple class of linear-quadratic systems.

The aim is to teach the basics of ab initio atomistic materials simulation using the Quantum Espresso suite of codes for electronic-structure calculations and materials modeling at the nanoscale. Fridays from 4-6 PM PST. Register here!
