A novel reduced order model for drone impacts with aircraft structures
CEAS Aeronautical Journal, 2023 AbstractSmall unmanned aerial vehicles are a threat for manned aviation. Their increased use by hobby pilots and within the commercial sector has been accompanied by an increase in incidents involving manned aircraft. The problem is that current aircraft structures are designed to resist collisions with birds.

Light‑Driven Propulsion of Graphene Aerogels in Microgravity
Advanced Science, EarlyView.Ultralight graphene aerogels convert laser light into thrust. Parabolic‐flight experiments directly compare their motion in microgravity and at 1 g, revealing order‐of‐magnitude enhancements in distance, velocity, and transient thrust when weight and friction are removed (∼50 times enhancement).
