Nicholas Oswald is an Electrical Engineer at Tinker Air Force Base’s SMXG Innovation and High Performance Computing Center. He is currently working as a technical expert/lead of the Radar Cross Section simulation group.

Nicholas graduated with his masters from Oklahoma State University in 2010. He is currently working on a Ph.D. at OSU in Computational Electromagnetics (CEM). His research is to simulate the change in the RCS when a defect (scratch or other aberrations) is applied to an object that is composed of a perfect electric conductor that has been coated with a dielectric surface. Other interests include simulation of electrically large scale objects utilizing techniques applied to the computational domain, or parallelization and GPU acceleration.
