Upcoming Webinars
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…
Attritable Unmanned Aircraft Systems: Conceptualization and Key Players
Air domain operations are critical to the U.S. military defense strategy. Military air domain missions use aircraft for tasks like attack; resupply; rescue; intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance; etc. Historically, air domain missions required manned aircraft,…
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…
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…
Past Webinars
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…
Characterization of Composite Spaced Armor Performance
Composite spaced armor is an unconventional armor system capable of stopping armor-piercing projectiles at lower areal density than possible with traditional metallic and ceramic armor…
A Three-Axis, Nonintrusive, Electro-optic Field Sensor for Electromagnetic Tests and Evaluations
For U.S. Department of Defense (DoD) directed-energy applications, nonintrusive electric and magnetic field probes can solve several technical problems associated with conventional probes. Conventional sensors…
Systems Engineering of Autonomy: Frameworks for MUM-T Architecture
Do we design autonomous systems or systems with autonomy? This question will be explored and developed by first understanding the perspective of autonomy, deconflicting the…
GNSS Spoof Detection and Mitigation
Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) vulnerability is an issue of increasing interest given the importance of GNSS to critical infrastructure worldwide. While the traditional concern…
