- Section Title:
- Astrobiology
- Section Info:
- This course will introduce science and engineering that pertain to the existence and nature of possible life beyond Earth, including how it might be discovered or seeded. As the only example available, understanding life on Earth, especially cell biology, provides an important context for such exploration, and it will therefore constitute an important part of the course. We will consider how incredibly complex modern biology might have arisen from the relatively simple geochemistry of early Earth. Mathematical analysis and computer simulations will be used to make ideas and theories concrete and quantitative despite limited data. Simple ecological and evolutionary models will provide a framework for thinking about how life persists and adapts to habitats. Definitions of life will be considered, especially in regard to what we might search for “out there”. Theories for and models of the origin of life will be introduced, including phase transition, dynamical systems, and information-theoretic perspectives of life’s dawn and progression. The theory introduced throughout will provide a backdrop for considering possibilities for life in our solar system and on exoplanets. Quantitative means for evaluating hypotheses given new data will frame updating standards for drawing conclusions from new data that may suggest evidence of life. Alternate forms of possible life will be considered, as well as engineering plans for searching for it or installing it elsewhere. Prerequisites: AE 202, 311 or 312, 352 or 353, and 370, or permission of the instructor. Undergraduate should take this course for 3 hours, and Graduate students should take this course for 4 hours.

- Section Title:
- Space Structures
- Section Info:
- This course will introduce the concepts, structural design, and fundamental structural mechanics of space systems including launch vehicles (i.e., rockets) and spacecraft structures. The materials used in these space structures will also be briefly discussed. This course will cover thin-walled structures (e.g., plates, stiffened shells, cylindrical shells) for the topics in launch vehicle structures and will focus on deployable structures for spacecraft structures. The topics related to deployable structures will include a broad set of designs ranging from rigid pin-jointed trusses and plates to foldable and flexible structures and inflatable membranes. This course will integrate the current advances in spacecraft structures R&D into the instruction through traditional lectures, in-class making/folding of paper model structures, hands-on projects, literature reviews, and guest lectures. All the hands-on activities planned in this course will only use commonly available materials such as print paper and online students can participate in these activities. Prerequisite: AE 323. Undergraduate should take this course for 3 hours and Graduate students should take this course for 4 hours.
