Ilenia Battiato Leads Short Course at NASA's Modeling Summer Visit
Ilenia Battiato recently held a short course at NASA during the 2025 Modeling Summer Visit at NASA Ames. This exciting program aims to unite professors and students from different institutions and NASA collaborators to engage in cutting-edge research in entry systems modeling.
Participants had the unique opportunity to work on hands-on projects that align with NASA’s mission-critical goals, specifically focusing on enhancing the understanding and simulation of thermal protection systems (TPS) and aerothermal environments during atmospheric entry. This international collaborative effort is designed to share expertise, explore innovative approaches, and develop simulation models that advance spacecraft entry dynamics. By fostering collaboration across academic and government institutions, the program aims to make a lasting impact on the future of spacecraft design and entry systems.
