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
Large-Scale, Multiagent, Reinforcement Learning Control
Swarming is a method of operation where multiple autonomous systems act as a cohesive unit by actively coordinating their actions. The Army is looking to…
Additive Manufacturing (AM) of 3-D-Printed Energetic Structures
The performance and thrust profile of a solid rocket motor is highly dependent on the geometry of the propellant grain. Traditional manufacturing techniques limit the…
Russian Artificial Intelligence (AI) Research, Development, Test & Evaluation (RDT&E)
Russian government, industry, and military are investing considerable resources into developing AI capabilities. This effort encompasses a growing number of institutions and enterprises seeking to…
Emerging Applications for Ionic and Electric Energetic Materials
Ionic energetic materials are relatively new compared to legacy materials such as ammonium perchlorate, double-base HMX, and hydrazine. Ionic energetic materials are hydroxy ammonium nitrate…
Using 222-nm UV Light for Continuous Disinfection of Occupied Buildings and Vehicles
For over 100 years, scientists have known ultraviolet (UV) light is very effective at killing pathogens. While 254-nm UV is widely used to clean our…
Optimizing Logistics Outcomes: The U.S. Navy’s Model-Based Product Support (MBPS)
The Navy’s current logistics data systems that provide configuration management, provisioning, readiness modeling, and technical data management support for ships and weapon systems are outdated….
