Aerospace, Chemical and Material Sciences
Abstract
Basic research in the Aerospace, Chemical, and Materials Sciences Project seeks to enable revolutionary advances and expand the fundamental knowledge supporting technologies critical to the future of the Department of the Air Force. Research stresses high-risk, high-reward, game-changing scientific breakthroughs essential for future leaps in warfighter system performance, functionality, reliability, and survivability while simultaneously reducing component and system power, size, mass, and life cycle costs. Research topics include: aero-structure interactions and control; energy, power, and propulsion; complex materials and structures; and cross-disciplinary research reflecting the highly integrated nature of future weapon systems. While the following specific efforts are the focus of the project there is interest in exploring novel ideas that may bridge these major efforts as well as those in other projects within this program.
