What began as a simple childlike fascination with space and aviation when I watched my first episode of Star Trek as a young girl, has followed me through the years, subtly influencing my choices throughout my studies. To me, the engineers in that series were the true heroes; no matter what happened, they were always able to draw out a “little more power” or come up with the creative work-around (albeit at the last second) that allowed the crew to collectively maneuver themselves out of whatever…
either ethical or unethical. Vincent Anton Freeman genetically modified himself to be similar to Jerome Eugene Morrow. Vincent always had a passion in working in the aerospace corporation, however, with his health issues he had from birth; he was unable to be part of the company. For a while, he worked as a janitor in the aerospace company called Gattaca. After a few weeks of working and getting exposed to his future desires, he impersonates himself as Jerome in order to work there. Once he got…

Deep bonding with flights I developed as a toddler. The flights’ landing and takeoff, I watched curiously when I was waiting in the airport launch for boarding Lufthansa flight to India. Fading of sawing noise as the plane disappeared in the sky during takeoff and puffs of smoke from the wheel as they touched the ground on landing captivated me. My level of excitement to watch these scenes never changed a bit even now. The contrail left behind by jets still amuses me. Playing flight…

How do you think international strategic management is reflected in what you see on the website? Luthans and Doe (2015 p. 277) define strategic management as the process of determining an organization’s basic mission and long-term objectives, then implementing a plan of action for attaining those goals. With that definition in mind, it is clear to me, based on what is stated, all over Infosys website, that they are striving, if they are not already, to be an international leader in…
This introductory chapter outlines the motivations relating to the titled project. The motivation elucidates the challenges that are faced in the aerospace industry with carbon emissions and how a box wing aircraft is best suited for these challenges. It also addresses the advantages of using topology optimisation for the best suited design optimisation for an unconventional box wing aircraft. The major advantages of topology optimisation are stated and justified based on its suitability for…
