Gregory A. Blaisdell

Gregory A. Blaisdell studies high-speed aerodynamics using computational methods such as large-eddy simulation (a technique for modeling turbulent, chaotic fluid motion) to understand phenomena like shock waves interacting with boundary layers, supersonic jet noise, and aerodynamic heating around missile and aircraft components. Much of the work supports aerospace engineering applications including missile fin design, supersonic wing structures, and jet noise reduction. Students would likely work on simulation-based projects analyzing complex, high-speed airflow behavior.

Publication output has been steady over the last decade, fluctuating between 1 and 6 papers per year with no clear long-term increase or decrease, averaging about 3 papers per year in the last five years.
