Going Hypersonic with Lockheed Martin Engineers James Stetson, Peter Yip, and Jonathan Heinrich
1,443The next generation of flight is happening now, the race to go hypersonic will have major implications on our world and the way we travel. Joining John Michael Godier in an EXCLUSIVE interview are three Lockheed Martin engineers who are currently working on the monumental amount of problem solving it takes to achieve hypersonic flight. Get ready to go hypersonic.
James Stetson
James is a Lead Research Engineer at Lockheed Martin Advanced Technologies Laboratory (ATL) and serves as the Technical Lead and Engineering Program Manager for multiple hypersonic defense programs and initiatives. He is an advocate for innovative, disruptive and holistic thinking across multiple disciplines and holds several US Patents. James received his BSE in Mechanical Engineering from Messiah University and has worked at Lockheed Martin for over 7 years.
Peter Yip
Peter is a senior research engineer at Lockheed Martin Advanced Technology Laboratories and an Aerospace Engineering and Mechanics PhD candidate at the University of Minnesota with a concentration in computational physics of hypersonic flight vehicles with 4+ years of applied research and development (R&D) experience for U.S. Department of Defense (DoD) platforms. His current work lies in the field of dynamic behavior of materials, continuum mechanics, experimental/computational physics, and hypersonic aerodynamics. Peter obtained his B.S. and M.S. in Mechanical Engineering with a concentration in mechanics of materials from the University of Central Florida and Johns Hopkins University, respectively.
Jonathan Heinrich
Dr. Jonathon Heinrich received his PhD in plasma physics from the University of Iowa in 2011. Since receiving his PhD, Jonathon has worked on a range of exciting programs that have spanned high energy density plasma, high power microwave sources, pulsed power, low temperature plasma, and space weather.
