ASDL disseminates knowledge to the industry through conferences and publications. ASDL Research Engineers and graduate students present their research at a number of conferences through the year. More than 700 ASDL papers have been presented at conferences in the last 20 years. In addition, ASDL publishes more extensive research in peer-reviewed journals, with 190 journal papers being published in the last two decades. See Georgia Tech’s online repository SmartTech to access additional ASDL publications.

Two ASDL papers were recently awarded best paper awards at the NAFEMS World Congress and Vertical Flight Society’s 79th Annual Forum & Technology Display!
