Dr. Marty Bradley is a AIAA Fellow and recently retired Technical Fellow for The Boeing Company. He has 39 years of aerospace experience and is now a consultant and instructor focused on sustainable aviation. His principal client is Electra.aero where he has the position of Senior Technical Fellow.

Marty has led projects related to electric and hybrid electric aircraft, advanced concepts and technologies, propulsion integration for advanced technologies, and aviation environmental life cycle analysis. He has broad experience in a wide variety of applications including subsonic and supersonic aircraft, high-speed missiles, hypersonic cruise vehicles, and air breathing space access vehicles. He was the Principal Investigator for the NASA-funded SUGAR study looking at advanced technologies for future commercial aircraft and has been working on electrified aircraft for 15 years.

He has a B.S., M.S., & Ph.D. from the University of Southern California and teaches the capstone Aircraft Design course. He teaches AIAA short courses in Sustainable Aviation and Design of Electrified Aircraft.

1. Introduction to Sustainable Aviation (90 minutes)

In this tutorial, participants learn about the history and current developments in sustainable aviation. Participants will learn the about the various topics related to sustainable aviation that include noise, alternative fuels (biofuels, synthetic fuels, methane, and hydrogen), and lifecycle environmental impact and analysis. The possible advantages and challenges of each type of alternative fuel and energy will be discussed.

2. Design of Electrified Propulsion Aircraft (90 minutes)

In this tutorial, participants learn about current developments in electrified propulsion, with an emphasis on electric and hybrid electric aircraft. Design examples will include aircraft of various sizes and missions. Powertrain architectures will be examined including pure electric, parallel hybrid, serial hybrid, and combinations with both combustion engines and fuel cells. The top technology challenges will be discussed.
