    Upon successful completion, the student body will understand multiscale hypersonic phenomena, distinguish between continuum and non-continuum regimes, identify non-equilibrium thermodynamic states, and apply molecular dynamics and mesoscale tools to analyze vehicle-level aerospace applications.

  • PROGRAM

    This course offers a comprehensive introduction to hypersonic flight, bridging microscopic atomic interactions with macroscopic vehicle design.

    The student body explores essential tools, non-equilibrium phenomena, multiscale physics, and the boundary between continuum and non-continuum regimes.

    Grounded in real-world aerospace applications, the training enhances employability by equipping participants with foundational skills in molecular dynamics, mesoscale modeling, and hypersonic concepts.
