There is now a CONTENT FREEZE for Mercury while we switch to a new platform. It began on Friday, March 10 at 6pm and will end on Wednesday, March 15 at noon. No new content can be created during this time, but all material in the system as of the beginning of the freeze will be migrated to the new platform, including users and groups. Functionally the new site is identical to the old one. webteam@gatech.edu

Aerospace Engineering graduate student Bosung Kim has been awarded a 2nd Place prize in the 9th annual Joseph A. Hartman Student Paper Competition for his paper, "Runway Assignment by Minimizing Emissions in Terminal Airspace", co-authored with Prof. John-Paul Clarke and Dr. Leihong Li, a Research Engineer -- both in the AE School. The 2nd Place prize comes with $500, along with an invitation to the 20th PARTNER Advisory Board Meeting on Feb 27-28, 2013, and the 10-year Review Symposium on March 1, 2013, at the Westin South Coast Plaza, Cost Mesa, CA -- travel expenses to be paid by PARTNER (Partnership for Air Transportation Noise and Emissions Reduction).
The competition is open to undergraduate and graduate students located anywhere in the world. Papers must relate to aircraft noise and/or emissions reduction. Of particular interest are papers describing research in:
The competition seeks to capture the best ideas concerning technical solutions, economic analysis, methodologies, and processes that work towards reducing aviation noise and emissions exposure through source reduction technologies, alternative fuels, operating procedures, compatible land use management, and policy implementation
