Join us for a meet and greet event hosted at the AIAA SciTech conference and learn more about the University Consortium for Applied Hypersonics and how to become a student participant. The event will be held during the AIAA SciTech conference at the Manchester Grand Hyatt San Diego, in Room Seaport F. RSVP for Hypersonic […]
This unique Hypersonics Test and Evaluation short course is an offering that is meant to introduce students to high speed and hypersonic test. The course will introduce the concept of hypersonic flight and describe the critical physics that is encountered at this unique and formidable speed regime. It will briefly discuss the system benefits and uses for this flight regime and put in perspective, why system performance and evaluation through test for this important speed regime can create difficulties for the tester, test facility developer and project manager. Principals of test design for this unique flight regime will be discussed as well as descriptions and examples of the typical test capability types along with examples of each in the current ground test infrastructure.
Abstract: The Department of Defense’s recent interest and prioritization of developing hypersonic systems has emphasized the need for new or improved test and evaluation capabilities in order to field such systems. The hypersonic flight regime presents several challenges to designers given the high temperatures and overall harsh environment that require novel materials, advanced propulsion systems, […]
Abstract: Two of the most important scientific questions in hypersonics and counter-hypersonics are control and stochastic estimation as applied at the flow physics level and vehicle level. These two questions are fundamental to control and estimation of external aerodynamics for maneuverable re-entry vehicles and cruise missiles. Active diagnostics and control of scramjet combustion and inlet […]

Abstract: Future hypersonic vehicles are expected to exhibit a high degree of autonomy and resiliency. At the same time, hypersonic flight environments pose significant challenges to onboard controllers that must be addressed in order to meet these future requirements. These challenges stem from uncertainty in aerodynamic and thermal characteristics, the presence of countermeasures, and the wide range […]
The AIAA DEFENSE Forum is focused on aerospace technologies and their applications in national security. The 2022 forum will explore how the science and technology community can advance research and development to rapidly provide operationally relevant capabilities to the warfighter. This Secret/NOFORN event provides the ideal venue for leaders from government, military, industry, and academia […]
American Conference Institute is proud to announce The Honorable Carlos Del Toro, 78th Secretary of the Navy, has joined as the opening keynote speaker at the upcoming National Summit on Hypersonic Weapons Systems, taking place April 26-27, in Washington, D.C.
US Navy Strategic Systems Programs, in partnership with the NavalX Midwest Tech Bridge, present the 2022 Hypersonic Innovation Conference. The 2022 Hypersonic Innovation Conference will emphasize the pressing need to advance American hypersonic technologies and leverage these technologies to achieve U.S. National Security goals. As nations around the world accelerate their development and production of hypersonic systems […]
The United States and our Allies have been able to count on a decisive technological advantage for more than 40 years. In today’s complex world we see challenges to our technological superiority from multiple sources. Our competitors are investing in technologies and developing capabilities that are directly designed to counter U.S. warfighting advantages, while simultaneously […]
