S SrinathkumarDr Srinathkumar holds BE (Bangalore University, India, 1960), MS (University of Hawaii, 1973) and PhD (Oklahoma State University, 1976) degrees in electrical engineering. He has spent all his professional life as a scientist at the National AerospaceLaboratories (NAL), India (1961-71, 1978-2000). During 1993-2000 he served as Head of the Flight Mechanics and Control Division at NAL. He has spent two sabbaticals at NASA Langley Research Center, Virginia, USA, under the USA National Research Council Fellowship program. During his tenures at NASA, he was involved in pioneering application of eigenstructure control techniques for aircraft flight control (1976-78) plus the design and successful experimental demonstration of active flutter control of a flexible wing (1987-89). His current interest continues to be in the application of modern control techniques to aircraft and rotorcraft handling-quality design problems. Read More Read Less
