Dr. Carlos Montalvo

Associate Professor
Mechanical Engineering / Aerospace Engineering

Education

  • Ph.D. Aerospace Engineering, Georgia Institute of Technology
  • M.S. Aerospace Engineering, Georgia Institute of Technology
  • B.S. Aerospace Engineering, Georgia Institute of Technology

Research

My basic research interests include a combination of dynamic simulation, control system design and flight testing as well as inventing and developing new flight control algorithms and vehicle designs to improve performance of autonomous air vehicles which include fixed wing, rotorcraft, projectile, parafoil vehicles, and multi-body systems. The projects I have worked on are at the intersection of flight dynamics, control engineering and air vehicle design.
