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 […]

Abstract: The D-21 was among the most ambitious projects undertaken by the Lockheed Skunk Works ™ under the legendary designer, Kelly Johnson.  Though less famous than the U-2 and SR-71, the D-21 was no less ambitious. Cruising at M=3.0 plus at unheard of altitudes with immense range, the D-21 was a robotic spy plane conceived […]

Abstract: For years, adversaries have been utilizing counterintelligence exploitation techniques to gain access to organizational and government information. These attempts have increased in ferocity with new techniques being developed on a daily basis.  As the largest defense contractor in the world, Lockheed Martin is far from exempt from this targeting. As Counterintelligence Professionals, our role […]

Abstract:The hypersonic domain introduces new constraints within multiple disciplines; aerodynamics, thermal protection/management, aeroheating, materials, structures, controls, sensors, and energy management. A GNC challenge is to find a feasible solution satisfying all the hypersonic constraints while also optimizing the mission objective. To further exacerbate the problem, a real-time onboard solution must compensate for uncertainties in propulsion, […]

Abstract: One of the most active fields across all fundamental to applied sciences and engineering disciplines is the use of information, knowledge, and computing. Whether it be controlling size, shape, and chemistry of materials, automating collection and analysis of on-the-fly data test day, the precise and predictive use of digitization and information, all are equally […]
