University Consortium for Applied Hypersonics Seminar Series: Instabilities in the Wake of Roughness on a Flat Plate in a Quiet Supersonic Tunnel

Abstract: Roughness-induced transition is an unavoidable reality in practical high-speed vehicles. Typical prediction of transition due to roughness include algebraic correlations and, more recently, semi-empirical methods. In the NASA Langley Research Center Supersonic Low Disturbance Tunnel, a Mach 3.5 quiet tunnel, several transition experiments have been performed in the past decade to better understand the […]

Hypersonic Weapons Summit Fall

Guiding Hypersonic Development to Operationalize Capabilities for US National Security Goals The US has actively pursued the development of hypersonic weapons as a part of its conventional prompt global strike program since the early 2000s. In recent years, it has focused such efforts on hypersonic glide vehicles and hypersonic cruise missiles with shorter and intermediate ranges for […]

2022 Hypersonic Technology & Systems Conference

Sustained hypersonic flight within dense atmosphere has substantial utility. Advances in underlying technologies and integration into weapon systems offer the DoD significant enhancements in its ability to penetrate heavily defended areas and prosecute time-critical targets. Other nations are also actively pursuing these technologies; as such, defense against such systems is also of increased interest. The […]

University Consortium for Applied Hypersonics Seminar Series: Discrete Roughness Boundary-Layer Transition at Hypersonic Conditions

Boundary layer transition at hypersonic conditions is a critical design concern for all future high-speed missions and vehicles.  As part of the vehicle design process, accurate methods are needed to predict transition behavior in flight, in order to correctly model the aerothermodynamic environments used to size a hypersonic vehicle’s thermal protections system.  In almost every […]

Hypersonic Defense 2022 Conference

A new era of ballistic missiles is imminent with a rapid race to develop the latest hypersonic weapons systems. There is also a pivotal issue to develop hypersonic defense systems to protect against the potential threat. NATO members are working to make sure the right capabilities are in place to defend from a hypersonic weapon. There is […]

Advanced Materials for Defense Summit

Mary M. Gates Learning Center Alexandria, VA, United States

We encourage you to reserve your sponsorship or exhibit space soon for the upcoming Advanced Materials for Defense Summit, occurring November 16-17, 2022, in Alexandria, VA.

University Consortium for Applied Hypersonics Seminar Series: Probing the Hypersonic Flight Environment with Ground-based Diagnostics

Abstract: The Livermore Independent Diagnostic Scoring System (LIDSS), aka “The Livermore Navy,” is a deployable suite of rafts, UAV’s, cameras, hydrophones, and radar that is used to gather remote sensed data for flight tests. Originally founded to assess the accuracy of nuclear stockpile ICBM tests, the scope of LIDSS’ mission has grown over the last […]

JHTO/UCAH Hypersonic Community Career and Networking Social

This event will provide students with an opportunity to learn more about the University Consortium for Applied Hypersonics and network with UCAH researchers at the AIAA SciTech conference. The conference will be held in the Gaylord National Resort & Convention Center. Light refreshments will be served. JHTO/UCAH Hypersonic Community Career and Networking Social Wednesday, January […]

University Consortium for Applied Hypersonics Seminar Series: High Temperature Materials Focus at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory

Abstract:The materials teams at LLNL have a unique focus on high temperature materials synthesis and analysis. The high-performance materials (HPM) group is focused on next generation material design for architected systems, along with high temperature composites for applications such as apertures, vehicle materials, leading edge fabrication, and component interfaces. During this talk we will discuss […]

University Consortium for Applied Hypersonics Seminar Series: Efficient Aero-Database Construction with Weighted Active Learning

Abstract: Constructing a well-characterized aero-database is essential for understanding the flight characteristics of a vehicle. High-fidelity CFD simulations can be time-consuming to generate. Generating samples in an efficient manner can greatly reduce the total simulation time. In practice, standard approaches often consider the whole space to be equally important, but there are many situations where […]
