The controls technology areas include fault diagnostics, health management, active combustion control, active stall control, turbomachinery system stability management, intelligent engine control, inlet control, integrated flight/propulsion control, nonlinear and robust multivariable control synthesis techniques, and life extending control. The dynamic modeling work includes modeling of advanced turbomachinery concepts and components, and cross-disciplinary research between controls and computational fluid dynamics (CFD).

2009 NASA Glenn Research Center Propulsion Controls and Diagnostics (PCD) Workshop
December 8 - 10, Cleveland, Ohio

The Controls and Dynamics Branch will be hosting the 2nd NASA Glenn Research Center (GRC) Propulsion Control and Diagnostics (PCD) Workshop to present the latest developments in PCD technologies at NASA Glenn. The workshop will also provide a venue for the research community to provide feedback and to identify opportunites for potential collaboration and sharing of tools and methods with NASA.
