Engineered Resilient Systems
Abstract
Engineered Resilient Systems (ERS) addresses the need for achieving more affordable and mission-resilient warfighting systems designed within a shorter time frame. ERS research and development focuses on new concepts for implementing an integrated suite of modern computational engineering tools, models, simulations and related capabilities, and tradespace assessment and visualization tools within an architecture aligned with acquisition and operational business processes. These integrated tools will operate within a framework that supports data-driven decision-making in an innovative environment that provides advanced knowledge management, including data retention and lessons-learned, and enables multi-community collaboration. ERS leverages multi-fidelity physics-based models developed by the S&T community to inform the acquisition decision process (e.g., increased/easier utilization of High Performance Computing, web-based analysis with large data sets, and lifecycle cost sensitivity analysis). These new computational and model-based frameworks adapt advanced design and modeling approaches from Government, industry, and academia to enable our Nation to affordably deliver warfighting capability. This effort continues execution of the ERS efforts previously funded in PE 0602251D8Z, Applied Research for the Advancement of S&T Priorities and builds upon earlier initial work for the purpose of achieving the goals set forth in the ERS DoD Community of Interest Roadmap. It is also fully coordinated and aligned with the work in Army PE 0603734A, Military Engineering Advanced Technology (Project T08).
