Dr. Charles E. Tinney
Dr. Tinney works alongside his research assistants and academic colleagues to design novel experiments focused on elucidating the underlying physics governing unsteady systems. Dr. Tinney's background has covered a broad spectrum of research initiatives including supersonic and subsonic jet aeroacoustics, rocket noise, aeroelasticity, unsteady aerodynamics and control, rotor noise, turbulent boundary layer flows, shock wave boundary layer interactions and fluid induced vibrations. He joined the Applied Research Laboratories at The University of Texas at Austin in 2015 after serving seven years as an Assistant Professor in the Aerospace Engineering and Engineering Mechanics department at UT. Prior to joining UT in 2008, he served as a Visiting Assistant Professor at the University of Florida and spent over two years at the Laboratoire d'Etudes Aerodynamique as a post-doctoral fellow with the Centre National de la Recherche Scientifique. He is an Associate Fellow of the American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics, a member of the American Physical Society and American Helicopter Society, and an Associate Editor for the Journal of the American Helicopter Society. Dr. Tinney also serves as the Technical Chair for the Aeroacoustics Technical Committee of the American Helicopter Society and receives continued support from agencies such as NASA, ONR, AFOSR, Air Force Research Labs and the Army Research Labs.
