Dr. Steve Morris holds a B.S. in Engineering Sciences from the United States Air Force Academy, an M.S. in Aeronautical Engineering from the Air Force Institute of Technology, and a Ph.D. in Aerospace Engineering from Texas A&M University. He has over 40 years of experience in aeronautical and mechanical engineering including both theoretical and experimental work. He served as an officer in the U.S. Air Force and as an engineer for over 24 years, including 12 years in the Department of Aeronautics at the U.S. Air Force Academy teaching aeronautical engineering and engineering design. Dr. Morris co-authored the textbook, "Introduction to Aircraft Flight Mechanics: Performance, Static Stability, Dynamic Stability, and Classical Feedback Control", published by the American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics.
Dr. Morris specializes in aircraft flight path and accident reconstruction using recorded radar data, flight data recorder data, Global Positioning System (GPS) data, and aircraft performance. His expertise includes flight dynamics and aircraft performance analyses, flight simulation, automatic control systems, aircraft stability and control, aerodynamics (including Computational Fluid Dynamics, or CFD), thermodynamics, space-based navigation systems, and aerospace education. He has also performed numerous aircraft icing analyses to support both accident investigation and certification. Dr. Morris has repeatedly taught the University of Kansas course "Aircraft Icing: Meteorology, Protective System, Instrumentation and Certification" and is a past Chairman of the Society of Automotive Engineers (SAE) Aircraft Icing Technology Committee. He is also an Associate Fellow of the American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics (AIAA) and has served on both the AIAA Atmospheric Flight Mechanics Technical Committee and the AIAA Applied Aerodynamics Technical Committee.
ESi's expertise spans dozens of industries and specializations organized across several practice groups, each staffed by dozens of in-house experts with the technical knowledge, hands-on expertise, and courtroom experience required to execute projects for and with our clients from start to finish.
