Elements of Designing an Experiment Goal is to assess your hypothesis The main thing is to keep the main thing the main thing-[Tom Curran, AFRL] The design goal for your experiment is to achieve your objective and satisfy your success criteria. Your HOS are the touchstones for your experimental design

Overview Autonomous Formation Flight: NASA RevCo Program Boeing is currently engaged with NASA Dryden Flight Research Center on a technically ambitious project, Autonomous Formation Flight(AFF). The projects primary goal is to investigate potential benefits of flying aircraft in the aerodynamic wake vortex emanating

Introduction A primary goal of your efforts in this course will be to gather empirical data so as to prove(or disprove) your hypothesis Typically the data that you gather will not directly satisfy this goal Rather, it will be necessary to \reduce\the data. to put it into an appropriate form, so that you can

TOPICS TO BE COVERED Why do error analysis? If we don't ever know the true value, how do we estimate the error in the true value? Error propagation in the measurement chain How do errors combine? (How do they behave in general?)

Why search (and cite) the literature of your field? Credibility: To be sure that your work is based on current, sound researchthe-- best in your field. Focus: To be able to place your work in context. Efficiency: To be sure that you're not duplicating work

DEFINITION OF A HYPOTHESIS Hypothesis A tentative explanation that accounts for facts and can be tested by further investigation; a theory Something taken to be true for the purpose of argument or investigation; an assumption .Experiment test under controlled conditions that is made to demonstrate

Prof. Ed Greitzer Prof. Earll Murman \The course faculty is responsible for the structuring of the subject and the development of the learning objectives, subject content and assessment tools. The course faculty will lead all class and team meetings and grade all written and oral material. The course faculty, together with input from the 16.62x staff and Writing Program Instructor, are responsible for assessing

Rank deficiencies Ranks deficiencies are combinations of parameters that can not be separately estimated In GPs. there are several rank deficiencies UTl, Longitudes of all the stations and the nodes of the satellite orbits, effectively can not be separated In theory, orbit perturbations by the moon/sun on the GPs
