Twentieth Army Science Conference: Award Winning Papers

Abstract

This volume contains the twenty-one prize-winning papers presented at the Twentieth United States Army Science Conference which was held in Norfolk, Virginia during 2%27 June 1996 under the sponsorship of the Assistant Secretary of the Army for Research, Development and Acquisition. The theme for the Twentieth Army Science Conference was Science and Technology for Force XXI - the Force of the Twenty-First Century. At the conference, original scientific and technical papers written by U. S. Army civilian and military scientists and engineers - addressed the role of science and technology in providing a competitive edge for Force XXI. Over one hundred and fifty original papers were presented at the Twentieth Army Science Conference in the following ten key technical areas: - Advanced Materials and Manufacturing including Structures and Energetics; - Microelectronics and Photonics; - Sensors and Information Processing including Communications; - High-Performance Computing and Simulation including Modeling, Displays, Artificial Intelligence, and Virtual Reality; - Advanced Propulsion Technologies including Mobility and Lethality; - Power Generation, Storage and Conditioning including Directed Energy; - Biological, Chemical and Nuclear Defense; - Life, Medical and Behavioral Sciences including Individual Sustainability and Soldier-System Interface; - Environmental Sciences and Oeosciences including Atmospheric, Space and Environmental Protection; - Engineering Sciences including Robotics, Mechanics, Fluid Dynamics and Survivability.
