Kirill Zaychik

Dr. Kirill Zaychik is a Research Professor in the Department of Mechanical Engineering at Binghamton University (SUNY). He holds an M.S. in Aerospace Engineering from the Moscow Institute of Physics and Technology (2001) and a Ph.D. in Mechanical Engineering from Binghamton University (2009). His career includes industry experience at Bombardier Aerospace (Montreal, Canada) focusing on Fly-by-Wire Control Systems before joining academia in 2012.

• Education:
  • M.S., Aerospace Engineering, Moscow Institute of Physics and Technology (2001)
  • Ph.D., Mechanical Engineering, Binghamton University (2009)

His research interests span human perceptual systems, man-machine interaction, control systems design, and machine learning applications. Key areas include flight/vehicle simulation, human-in-the-loop modeling, and parameter estimation using numerical methods. He has contributed to projects for NASA and the U.S. Airforce, authoring 19 technical papers.

Dr. Zaychik’s publications (2003–2023) focus on advancing control systems, human operator modeling, and simulation technologies. Recent work explores real-time pilot identification via biometrics and adaptive control algorithms. Earlier studies addressed turbulence simulation, vection phenomena, and simulator sickness mitigation.

While no scientific awards are mentioned, his research demonstrates significant industry-academic collaboration. He has advised no listed students but contributes to curricula like ME 212 (Mechanical Engineering Programming).

No affiliated labs/teams are explicitly noted, though his work aligns with aerospace and mechanical engineering systems research at Binghamton’s Watson School.
