Instructor: Paul Mitiguy Peterson 113 650{ }346{ }9595
Paul is a Consulting Professor at Stanford whose research centers on statics, dynamics, forces, and motion simulation. Paul pioneered the creation of the symbolic manipulators Autolev, MotionGenesis , and MathGenesis . Paul was responsible for research and development of MSC.Software's motion and FEA products including MSC.visualNastran 4D, Working Model 3D (versions 1-6), Working Model 2D (v. 2-5), and Interactive Physics (v.2-6). Paul enjoys developing interactive teaching methods and curriculum in Stanford's engineering courses and is known for the enthusiasm and demonstrations (e.g., dynamic celt) he brings to the classroom. |

Lead TA: Daniel: Jacobs dajacobs {AT} stanford [DOT] edu
Daniel is a PhD student in the Robotic Locomotion Laboratory. His research involves modeling foot-ground collisions during high speed landings of legged robotic systems. He joined Stanford in 2001 and completed both undergraduate and masters degrees in Mechanical Engineering. Originally from Boston (Go Red Sox!), when he's not talking about dynamics, he's more than happy to talk about jazz, soul and blues. |

Head TA: Barrett Heyneman: heyneman {AT} stanford [DOT] edu
Barrett is a PhD student in the Biomimetic and Dexterous Manipulation Laboratory. His past research has focused on sensing and control for a gecko-inspired, legged, climbing robot; Stickybot. More recently he has been working on novel sensing techniques for pressure and proximity. As Paul continually likes to point out and pick on, Barrett went to Caltech for his BS. Outside of school related activities, Barrett can be found watching too much TV, reading, or playing rugby. |
 |
TA: Marcus Hammond mmh13 {AT} stanford [DOT] edu
Marcus in a 2nd-year graduate student in the Aero-Astro department. His focus is on controls and dynamics. Originally from Los Angeles, Marcus completed his undergraduate degree in Mechanical Engineering at Yale University. When he's not differentiating vectors, Marcus likes playing a variety of sports and salsa dancing with Los Salseros de Stanford. |

TA Kyle Washabaugh kwash {AT} stanford [DOT] edu
Kyle is a second year Aero-Astro graduate student, interested in aircraft design and optimization. He hails from the chilly east coast, where he studied mechanical engineering as an undergrad at Yale. If you catch him outside of the classroom, feel free to kick up a conversation about hydrofoils, flying, or sports (especially lax). |
