Report on the 9th IEEE AESS Workshop on Metrology for AeroSpace MetroAeroSpace 2022
University of Pisa, Italy, and Silvia Ullo, University of
Sannio, Italy. Every year this session is attracting more
and more scientists to this engaging research field.
Due to the great success of the previous edition, it was
reorganized the initiative IEEE Women in Engineering
(WIE) Panel " Sharing Ideas with Experienced and EarlyStage
Researchers. " In line with the objectives of the WIE
Commitment Chart " Steering Girls to STEM, " the purpose
of the panel was to promote female models who are role
models and who carry out mentoring activities toward young
minds. To this end, the panel wants to highlight how from
the comparison between experienced and early stage
researchers on their respective experiences, it is possible to
identify guidelines and prospects for growth and good practices
that increase the presence of young women in the specific
fields of research. The panel was chaired by Silvia
Liberata Ullo, University ofSannio, Italy; Patrizia Lamberti,
University of Salerno, Italy; Fiorella Lamberti, Leonardo
Company; and Claudia Conte, University ofBergamo, Italy.
Subsequently, two tutorials were presented:
" Investigation of Muzzle Flow Using Background
Oriented Schlieren and Particle Image Velocimetry
Techniques, " Abdelhafidh Moumen, Royal Military
Academy, Belgium;
" From Needs to Solutions: Hydrogen in the Aerospace
Sector, but not only, " Michele Ferrazzini and
Sanjiv Sharma, EconScience-H2, Italy.
The program of the third workshop day offered:
- the Special Session " Space to Space: Scientific and
Technological Challenges for Human and Robotic
Space Exploration " organized by Vittorio Ancona,

Challenges for Human and Robotic Space
Exploration, " speakers were Pasquale Daponte,
University of Sannio, Italy, Mario Cosmo, ASI,
Ernesto Ciaramella, Scuola Superiore Sant'Anna di
Pisa, Pier Luca Maffettone, University of Naples
Federico II; a representative for spoke HABITAT &
SPACE SCIENCE-Space for the sustainable
development of the planet;
- a fifth tutorial, " Experimental Implementation and
Study of the Lightning Swept-Stroke Along an Aircraft, "
was given by Vincent Andraud, The French
Aerospace Lab Onera, France.
Social events gave the possibility to reinforce old
friendships and create new contacts. MetroAeroSpace
2022 program included a welcome party and a gala dinner,
48
Alfonso Farina, Maria Sabrina Greco, and Silvia Ullo, organizers
