About the Author
Christos Kassapoglou received his BS degree in Aeronautics and Astronautics, and two MS degrees (Aeronautics and Astronautics and Mechanical Engineering) all from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. He received his Ph.D in Aerospace Engineering from the Delft University of Technology. Since 1984, he has worked in the industry, first at Beech Aircraft on the all-composite Starship I and then at Sikorsky Aircraft in the Structures Research Group specializing on analysis of composite structures of the all-composite Comanche and other helicopters, and leading internally funded research and programs funded by NASA and the US Army. Since 2001, he has been consulting with various companies in the United States on applications of composite structures on airplanes and helicopters. He joined the faculty of the Aerospace Engineering Department of the Delft University of Technology (Aerospace Structures) in 2007 as an Associate Professor. His interests include fatigue and damage tolerance of composites, analysis of sandwich structures, design and optimization for cost and weight and technology optimization. He has over 40 journal papers and three issued or pending patents on related subjects. He is a member of AIAA, AHS and SAMPE.
