BACKGROUND

Chloe Johnson received her Ph.D. in Aerospace Engineering from the University of Texas at Austin. Her thesis topic was experimental measurements of a coaxial co-rototating rotor's performance, noise, and wake. After completing her Ph.D., she worked for the Naval Surface Warfare Center, Carderock Division in the Sea-Based Aviation and Aeromechanics branch. Her research focuses on experimental studies of rotor aeromechanics using methods such as PIV and aeroacoustic pressure measurments in the Glenn L. Martin Wind Tunnel and UMD Acoustic Hover Chamber.
