Upcoming Webinars
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,…
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…
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…
