NASA’s Aeronautics Research Mission Directorate, Aviation Safety Program, has awarded approximately $330,000 to The Boeing Company, Huntington Beach, for its proposal, “Robust Composite Adaptive Control for Piloted Aircraft.”
NASA also has awarded approximately $225,000 to SRI International, Menlo Park, for its proposal, “Symbolic Verification of Adaptive Systems” and approximately $225,000 for its proposal, “Formally Supported Safety Cases for Adaptive Systems.”
In addition, NASA has awarded approximately $197,000 to the University of California, Davis, for its proposal, “Dynamically Constrained Adaptive Flight Path Planning Using Predictive Algorithms.”
These awards will foster close collaboration with and facilitate the exchange of ideas and information among researchers within NASA, industry, academia and other government agencies to benefit the nation’s aeronautics community.
NASA conducts cutting-edge research to improve the safety of current and future aircraft operating in the National Airspace System. The research will focus on the way vehicles are designed, built, operated and maintained. Scientists and engineers in this program develop principles, concepts, tools, methods and technologies to address four areas: aircraft aging and durability, integrated intelligent flight deck technologies, integrated vehicle health management and integrated resilient aircraft control.
