Shrinking the Circle: Reducing impact on an E3 attack

Dr. Mack Grady, professor of electrical and computer engineering, could not predict that his expertise in electrical power would lead to him being involved in science-fiction worthy research. However, that is exactly where he ended up when he found himself being recruited for national defense efforts against electromagnetic pulses (EMPs).

Developing a Tool for Fuel Efficiency

While engineers understand the fundamentals of the way liquid fuel behaves inside an engine, a vast number of variables make it difficult to predict its efficiency. The interplay of small fuel droplets and air impacts the performance of a variety of combustion engines — and it is a factor that a Baylor ECS professor has received a substantial award to study.
