Materials Application and Integration Adv Tech
Abstract
This Project matures, integrates, and demonstrates lightweight novel materials, and new manufacturing processes and methodologies. These materials and technologies will enable the Army to address critical areas within survivability, mobility, and transportability. This Project also continues the Advanced Vehicle Power Technology Alliance between the Department of Energy and the Department of the Army with a focus on materials, providing an emphasis on developing advanced technologies that enable military ground vehicles to become significantly more energy efficient. The Alliance is chartered to accelerate the conceptualization and transition into deployment of inventive and creative energy-saving concepts that the Nation needs to achieve energy security. This Project matures and integrates lightweight materials and joining technologies in support of lighter military vehicles which are more fuel-efficient and expeditionary with superior mobility and protection of both vehicles and occupants. The cited work is consistent with the Under Secretary of Defense for Research and Engineering priority focus areas and the Army Modernization Strategy. Work in this Project supports the Army Modernization Priority Next Generation Combat Vehicle. Work is performed by the United States (US) Army Futures Command . Work in this Project is coordinated with PE 0602145A (Next Generation Combat Vehicle Technology).
