Albert George papers

Albert George is a professor of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering and Systems at Cornell University. George’s research and teaching areas are in systems, energy and vehicles. His interests in systems include research on systems views of energy use, health care, knowledge engineering, and manufacturing. In the energy systems area, he has been working on modeling the systems effects of energy sources and energy utilization and in how to supply information to people making decisions on future energy sources and utilization. He is active in systems approaches to aspects of health care such as infection control and improving sleep quality in hospital settings. The focus of his vehicle-related work has been on aerodynamics and aeroacoustic noise mechanisms and the performance, and design of aircraft, automobiles, and engine cooling.
