William Mangram

Visiting Scholar

William is highly passionate about the intersection of implementable innovations and classical and quantum mechanics. His work looks to enhance aerospace infrastructure, which may also be subject to astrophysical phenomena such as microgravity situations.

His current work focuses on utilizing acoustic waves to properly model and estimate liquid propellant's volume fraction in space-rated tanks, known as spectral mass-gauging. These same acoustics are utilized to also measure the frequency response attributed to damages on the tank's surface, a technique called structural health monitoring.

Previous experience is most notably project based with extensive practice within CAD workshop, various FEA/CFD software, and multiple programming languages such as MatLab, C++, Python, etc. for developing substantial and accurate results. William also enjoys dynamics, robotic/control systems, optimization and localization, feedback control, and other statistical system reliability analyses
