Upcoming Webinars
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,…
The Effects of Corrosion on Ballistic Protection of Armor and Methods to Prevent and Treat Corrosion in Armored Vehicles
The Defensive Equipment and Armored Vehicle Division (DEAV) of the Department of State (DoS) has seen repeated and extensive corrosion on armored vehicles (AVs) at various posts, affecting both armor and original equipment manufacturer (OEM)…
In-Space Developmental Test Persistent Platform at the U.S. Space Force
To accelerate new technology development, overcome the technical readiness levels 4‒7 “Valley of Death,” and reduce acquisition cost, the U.S. Space Force (USSF) started an In-Space Developmental Test (iSDT) initiative, which is also called Advanced…
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…
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…
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…
Past Webinars
Materials and Applications for Electromagnetic Interference Shielding
The United States’ ability to deploy weapon systems with embedded electronics is a key capability for the Warfighter. Protecting embedded electronics against electromagnetic interference (EMI)…
Breaking and Fixing Autonomous Cyber-Physical Tactical Systems
Autonomous systems, including self-driving cars and air vehicles, have caught the imagination of the press and the public. However, broader adoption of such systems in…
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…
