Towards a Center for Naval Engineering and Research Education
Abstract
We propose to establish a Center for Naval Engineering and Research Education (CNERE) to conduct research into key problems of Navy,relevance. The Center is a collaboration between the University of Minnesota, University of Michigan and the George Washington Unive,rsity. This proposal discusses the George Washington University planning effort. In this one-year effort, we will develop the Center, plan, associated logistical infrastructure, and conduct research into foundational elements of the Center?s portfolio. We will iden,tify the multi-year research themes of the Center. The experimental element of the Center will develop a critical mass of students a,nd postdoctoral researchers with expertise in state-of-the-art instrumentation for hydrodynamics and hydro-acoustics. The Center wil,l develop novel experimental tools and experimental facilities, which will be transitioned to Navy collaborators. The research portf,olio will include high-Reynolds number turbulent flows, fluid-structure interaction and hydro-acoustics. The Center will develop an,outstanding sequence of graduate-level courses, and actively engage Navy research laboratories and the broader scientific community,through workshops and visiting scientist programs. The Center will have a strong DEI emphasis with the goal of increasing participat,ion of under-represented groups in the Naval workforce, and more broadly in STEM. Approved for Public Release
