2015 Hypervelocity Impact Symposium

Abstract

The Hypervelocity Impact Symposium (HVIS) serves as the principal forum for the discussion, interchange, and presentation of the physics of high- and hypervelocity impact and related technical areas. It is intended for scientists, engineers, and technical managers from academia, industry, government, and defense programs. The HVI Symposia have a long-standing international reputation as a catalyst for stimulating research in this area through a wealth of oral and poster presentations, and commercial exhibits. The Symposium's proceedings are the major archival source of papers published in this field. The symposium is organized by the Hypervelocity Impact Society, a professional organization devoted to the advancement of the science and technology of hypervelocity impact and the related technical areas required to facilitate an understanding of hypervelocity impact phenomena. The goals of the Society are to foster the development and exchange of technical information in the discipline of high speed impact phenomena by promoting technical excellence, encouraging peer-reviewed publications, and holding meetings on a regular basis. One of the ways these goals are realized is by organizing regularly scheduled Hypervelocity Impact Symposia. These Symposia provide opportunities for Society members to exchange information in a variety of technical areas of mutual interest.
