Ge-Cheng Zha receives DARPA Award for Aviation Transports

A research grant from the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) could help a University of Miami College of Engineering professor transform the aviation industry. Dr. Ge-Cheng Zha, a professor of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering with the CoE, and a IDSC Member, received a DARPA grant to conduct research including numerical simulation, design, and wind tunnel testing to further demonstrate the superior co-flow jet (CFJ) airfoil performance for extremely short takeoffs and landings, and ultra-high-transonic cruise efficiency.
