Upcoming Webinars
NSWC Indian Head Division Battle Lab
In the last decade, Warfighters have grown reliant on commercial-off-the-shelf (COTS) equipment to meet their operational needs rather than use traditional U.S. Department of Defense acquisition paths. Although COTS systems may offer a responsive and…
MBSE 2.0: A Modern Approach for Constructing System Architecture Models
A core challenge in modern systems engineering is in applying digital engineering (DE) to programs in support of systems engineering activities. Model-based systems engineering (MBSE) focuses on the formal application of models to support the…
Material and Structure Considerations for Morphing Aerospace Skins
The U.S. Air Force Research Laboratory is leading an effort on increasing missile range and lethality against highly maneuverable targets through utilizing active morphing. In this system, morphing is accomplished through articulating the neck region,…
Overview of Space Nuclear Propulsion and Power
Commercial and government agencies are exploring novel space missions that would expand or enhance various capabilities in near-Earth and interplanetary regimes. These missions may require potentially enabling propulsion and electrical power technologies that offer unique…
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…
Experimental Protective Coatings for CDEW Applications
Researchers have taken many avenues to mitigate how high-energy laser (HEL) weapons affect platform survivability because of size, weight, performance, and cost factors. Protective coatings offer a cheap, lightweight option for counter directed energy weapons…

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…
