MARK YOUR CALENDARS for May 2022! During the week of 23-27 May 2022, the Department of the Air Force Hypersonics S&T enterprise is hosting the 2022 Hypersonics Independent Research and Development (IR&D) Technology Interchange Meeting (TIM) at Wright-Patterson AFB, Ohio. This invitation is open to all industry partners with IR&D and corporate investments, including large […]
Abstract: An overview of the advancements in research and development efforts at The University of Arizona on high-temperature, RF and IR, materials for application as radome and window material systems for hypersonic (platforms) will be discussed. Evaluation of high-temperature mechanical, electrical and toughness behavior of a recently developed class of RF materials shows potential for […]
Additive Manufacturing, or 3D printing, is quickly becoming a staple component of advanced manufacturing capability across the aerospace, space and defense industrial base. With this in mind, we are holding our first annual Additive Manufacturing for U.S. Aerospace, Defense and Space Summit on June 14-15 in Orlando, Florida. This senior and expert-led Summit will highlight the ongoing […]
Abstract: High-speed boundary layer turbulence is the primary driver for thermal loads on high-speed vehicles. Much research has been conducted to study when, why and how the boundary layer transitions from laminar to turbulent. However, we lack a physics-based understanding of high-speed turbulent boundary layers. Therefore, the Boundary Layer Turbulence (BOLT II) In Memory of […]
There’s no shortage of challenges facing the aviation industry: the supply chain is at a pivotal point, there is a downturn in demand, environmental sustainability is critical, and experts warn of a growing talent shortage. At this inflection point, how do we turn setbacks into comebacks? We have the opportunity to reset expectations, redefine roles, […]
NSMMS and CRASTE, two space focused conferences, will co-locate events for the 10th year. These co-located Symposia continue their outstanding legacy in bringing together technologists, users, and decision makers from across the nation. Discussions involves key technology issues related to space, missile, hypersonic systems, and a variety of ground-breaking commercial space topics necessary for our […]
