Ilan Kroo
Thomas V. Jones Professor in the School of Engineering
BioProfessor Kroo's research involves work in three general areas: multidisciplinary optimization and aircraft synthesis, unconventional aircraft, and low-speed aerodynamics. Current research in the field of aircraft synthesis, sponsored by NASA and industry, includes the development of a new computational architecture for aircraft design, and its integration with numerical optimization. Studies of unconventional configurations employ rapid turnaround analysis methods in the design of efficient subsonic and supersonic commercial aircraft. Recent research has included investigation of configurations such as joined wings, oblique wings, and tailless aircraft. Nonlinear low-speed aerodynamics studies have focused on vortex wake roll-up, refined computation of induced drag, the design of wing tips, and the aerodynamics of maneuvering aircraft.

Sharon Krossa
Drupal Consultant, Stanford Nanofabrication Facility
Staff, Stanford Nanofabrication FacilityBioSharon blames (in chronological order) her parents, CS Lewis, Brother Alfred, Clan Colin & the original Renaissance Pleasure Faire North, HyperCard, Grant G. Simpson, Stanford, her therapist, and her husband for where she is now. Note that her bio, honors and awards, and publications are bogus. (They're purely for testing purposes. It's her job, honest.)
