Upcoming Webinars
Launch Site Selection Using Inland Commercial Spaceports for Constellation Deployment
As nontraditional, inland spaceports start to become operational, there is a need to understand the viability of deploying satellite constellations from these potential commercial offerings for launching. This work investigates how utilizing a small launch…
Digital Twin Research and Development for a Metal Additive Manufacturing Process
A laser-based metal additive manufacturing process offers lower heat input, thus leading to less base metal distortion compared to traditional welding processes. Digital twin (DT) is a critical technology, as it gives insights into many…
Computational Tools to Predict the Response of UHMWPE Composites to Impact
Ultra-high, molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) composites are advanced materials that lack experimentally driven, physics-based computational tools for predicting their response. This challenge exists for traditional fiber-based UHMWPE composites in a softer matrix material as well…
The Next Frontier in Energy and Materials: Turbostratic Graphene
Unlike conventional single- or few-layer graphene, turbostratic graphene, which is derived from biomass feedstock, can perform across a wide range of metrics and applications. To raise awareness and increase domestic production of turbostratic graphene, this…
Better, Faster, Cheaper Metallic Components: NSF’s HAMMER-ERC
The U.S. National Science Foundation’s Hybrid Autonomous Manufacturing, Moving from Evolution to Revolution Engineering Research Center (NSF HAMMER-ERC) is a collaboration between five universities to develop agile manufacturing systems that use new tools and advanced…

Directed Energy Intermediate Force Capabilities (IFCs): Relevant Across the Range of Military Operation
Directed energy weapons are key to addressing the Joint Force’s capability gaps. The Joint Intermediate Force Capabilities Office (JIFCO), located at Marine Corps Base Quantico,…
Controlling Surface Roughness to Enhance or Degrade Image Appearance in Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR)
Surface roughness is one of the most important factors that contribute to the brightness or darkness of objects in a SAR image. Surface roughness is…
Vision of the Next Generation Propagation Tool in a “Fast and Furious” Three-Dimensional World
The advent of 5G networks and the pervasiveness of spectrum-dependent systems complicate the electromagnetic operational environment and make reliable network planning essential to command and…
DoD Maintenance Manual Modernization in the Digital Age
The average age of the modern military aviation maintainer is in the mid-20s. These maintainers have grown up in the digital age, with very early…
A Basic Introduction for Designing a PCB With eCAD/CAM Software
Printed circuit boards (PCBs) are ubiquitous elements of modern electronic systems. In DoD research, PCBs play a vital role in creating reliable, economic, and deterministic…
Modeling Reactive Metal Fragment Effects in Endgame Codes
Reactive metal fragments (RMFs) are created from mixtures of powders that are first pressed and then sintered into solid form. When heated sufficiently, RMFs can…
