Vermont NASA Space Grant

Dr. Hinkelman has been awarded a VTSGC Small-Scale Research Grant on Improving circular design methods and metrics from a life cycle perspective to support NASA’s long-term space exploring systems. In collaboration with NASA Ames Research Center, this project develops advanced graph-based methods and visualization tools to improve circular design methods and metrics for NASA life-support and environmental control systems, supporting engineering design decisions for long-term space exploration.

This research is supported by the Vermont Space Grant Consortium (VTSGC) and Vermont NASA EPSCoR Faculty Research Grant Program.
