  • 0.00 - 3.00 Credits

    3 Credits This course introduces the student to the legal issues and concerns confronting the health and safety industry. Included is an overview of the historical legal precedence established for the aviation industry, as well as a comprehensive examination of laws, regulations, and legislation that govern the actions and authority of the health and safety professional. This course also provides an introduction to the governing bodies and associations that are tasked with setting the legal standards by which the industry must operate, including the scope and level of their authority.
  • 0.00 - 3.00 Credits

    3 Credits This course requires senior-level students to conduct research in a safety-related topic of his or her choosing under the direction of a faculty member.
  • 3.00 Credits

    (3,0) 3 Credits This course emphasizes the importance of building a simulation system that delivers a flight experience that is realistic to the pilot. The student will develop a thorough understanding of the relationships between fidelity, FAA criteria for simulation approval, and pilot modal interaction with the simulation regarding senses, including proprioceptive, visual, tactile, and aural. Students will conduct an analysis of the need for motion and motion cueing to gain inferences on the associated effects on fidelity.
  • 3.00 Credits

    3 Credits This course will derive the equations of motion of a 6 DOF aerospace vehicle. Stability derivative will be defined mathematically. The equations for static and dynamic stability of the longitudinal and lateral directional motion will be derived. Numerical integration methods in a suitable computer language will be used to solve these equations. Physical understanding of stability derivates will be discussed at length. Prerequisite: MA 345. Corequisite: AE 302.
  • 3.00 Credits

    (3,0) 3 Credits Advanced instrumentation setups for aircraft flight testing. The following aircraft quality transducers will be discussed theoretically: accelerometers, rate gyros, strapdown gyro packages, digital pressure transducers, thermocouples, linear displacement transducers, load cells, and RPM transducers. Installation of the above instruments will be discussed. Calibration and errors will be investigated. This course includes a lab for installation and calibration of transducers on an aircraft. Pre/Corequisites: MA 345, SIM 300 or AE 413.
  • 3.00 Credits

    Introduction to Flight Testing (3,0) 3 Credits An overview of the role and function of flight testing in the aerospace industry. Major topics will include past, present, and future of flight test, FAA and DOD certification processes, risk management, test planning and reporting, and an overview of the principal flight test methods and procedures for aircraft and engine performance, stability and control, handling qualities, avionics systems performance and integration, human factors evaluation, production and maintenance flight test, homebuilt flight test, and DOD operational flight test. Final project will involve team evaluation of an aircraft using Embry-Riddle simulators, including test planning and reporting. Lab fee required. Prerequisites: AS 309 or equivalent, SIM 200. SIM 404 Fly-By-Wire Aircraft Simulation and Design (3,0) 3 Credits This course addresses recent advances in automated flight control systems. Fly-by-wire aircraft architecture will be discussed. Aircraft simulations will be used to enhance and stabilize aircraft stability and handling qualities. Strategies such as theta control, c-star, and flight path angle control will be addressed. Prerequisites: AE 413, MA 345.
  • 0.00 - 3.00 Credits

    3 Credits This course focuses on what is required to develop a simulation visual system that is realistic to the end user. The student will develop a thorough understanding of the hardware and software required to develop and display a visual database. Students will also understand requirements for visual systems in FAA-qualified devices and understand how a display system is constructed. In the laboratory the student will obtain hands-on experience with visual database development software by designing and testing a model that meets an actual requirement of the flight department and incorporating that model into the department's global database. Prerequisite: SIM 200.
  • 0.00 - 3.00 Credits

    3 Credits This course addresses recent advances and new applications in the expanding field of telecommunications and computer networks and their relationship with computer-based simulations. Students learn the principles for creating a distributed interactive simulation (DIS) environment that realizes a common operational environment among the systems. The course addresses creation of a DIS environment that is coherent in time and space. Students learn aspects of networking necessary to create real-time seamless simulated flight environments. Topics include: ATM (asynchronous transfer mode), SONET/SDH (synchronous optical network/synchronous digital hierarchy), gigabit ethernet, 10 gigabit ethernet, OSI (open systems interconnection) reference model, TCP/IP (transmission control protocol/Internet protocol) transmission media, network topologies, network protocols, and network performance.
  • 3.00 Credits

    3 Credits An interdisciplinary, capstone course in flight-testing and simulation. This course will rely on interdisciplinary groups to perform flight tests and simulation matching for typical FAA certification of aircraft and simulators. Lab fee required. Prerequisite: At least one of the following: SIM 300, AE 413, AS 340, HF 310.
  • 0.00 - 3.00 Credits

    3 Credits SIS 100 is the introductory course for the Global Security and Intelligence Studies program. It discusses the whole range of contemporary international issues, from questions of realism versus idealism in foreign affairs, to changes in the nation-state, the implications of climate change, the proliferation of weapons of mass destruction, international development, the rise of China, and international public health. The course requires the student to closely follow breaking international developments and learn to discuss these objectively and analytically. An important emphasis throughout the course is for the student to learn and demonstrate critical thinking and imagination.
