NASA-Supported Software Turkish academic Dr. Gökçin Çınar, with the support of NASA, has developed a free artificial intelligence-supported software capable of designing and calculating hybrid-electric aircraft technology.
Future Aviation Technology Dr. Gökçin Çınar from the Department of Aerospace Engineering at the University of Michigan is working on sustainable hybrid-electric aircraft. A graduate of METU Aerospace Engineering, Çınar completed his doctorate at Georgia Tech in the USA. In 2022, he received funding from NASA for his work on the application of hybrid-electric systems to aircraft and was awarded the ‘best paper award’ by NASA for his research on hybrid-electric aircraft design.
NASA Requested, Çınar Delivered Developed with the request and support of NASA, the Future Aircraft Sizing Tool (FAST) stands out as software that makes it easy to design high-tech aircraft. This software will also be an effective resource for students. FAST will contribute to the design and engineering of hybrid-electric aircraft expected to be produced and put into use within the next 10 years.
Artificial Intelligence Software Dr. Çınar stated, “NASA wanted software that can perform computational aircraft design, is open to everyone, easy to learn, and requires very few inputs. FAST can design both current aircraft and those working with future technologies. It can design and calculate many aircraft in a short time.” The software speeds up processes for experts while offering more than traditional methods for non-experts and students.
Electric Aircraft Studies Dr. Çınar noted that work on electric aircraft is continuing at full speed, saying, “I anticipate that we will see new design aircraft around 2035.”
Engineering Models for Susan In 2021, NASA tasked Dr. Çınar and his team with modeling the engineering calculations of Susan, a hybrid-electric aircraft concept developed by NASA. Susan will fly with one jet fuel-consuming engine and 16 electric motors. Dr. Çınar will compile and model the engineering calculations for this aircraft using FAST.
Technology for the Aircraft of the Future With the AI-supported FAST he developed, Dr. Gökçin Çınar will play an important role in the design of future hybrid-electric aircraft.
