Air Force Office of Scientific Research, 1995 Research Highlights
Abstract
This volume is the third annual issue of Research Highlights based on our monthly editions of significant achievements and accomplishments. Although this edition contains a small selection of AFOSR's many research successes in 1994, they are representative of our mission: to sponsor and sustain basic research; to transfer and transition research results, and; to support Air Force goals of control and maximum utilization of air and space. The highlights provide brief descriptions of AFOSR's research investment accomplishments, examples of technology transfer, and technology insertion. Their purpose is to provide Air Force, DOD, government, and private sector officials interested in science and technology management with brief accounts illustrating how AFOSR supports the Air Force and DOD missions and the national posture in technology. AFOSR's integrated management approach fosters bilateral and multilateral partnerships between Air Force, university and industry researchers and Air Force, defense and commercial industrial customers. Last year, our nearly 2,000 active research tasks spawned more than 260 significant technology or product applications, more than one-half of these encompassed direct transfers to U.S. industry, with military as well as commercial benefits. The diverse and wide-ranging scientific efforts in this volume share the common denominator of quality research. Some of the research highlighted here will find its way into currently deployed Air Force systems; some will not reach maturity until we enter the 21st century.
