Equip For The Soldier
Abstract
This Project supports basic research to achieve technologies for the Soldier of the future. This research is focused on core technology areas which include mathematical modeling, physical and cognitive performance, polymer science/textile technology, nanotechnology, biotechnology, and combat ration research. Research efforts are targeted at enhancing the mission performance, survivability, and sustainability of the Soldier by advancing the state-of-the-art in the sciences underlying human performance, clothing, and protective equipment to defend against battlefield threats and hazards such as ballistics, chemical agents, lasers, environmental extremes, and ration shortfalls. Work in this Project provides theoretical underpinnings for PE 0602786A (Warfighter Technology). Funding has been realigned to reflect the FY20 financial restructure and Army Modernization Priorities. The cited work is consistent with the Under Secretary of Defense for Research and Engineering priority focus areas and the Army Modernization Strategy.
