2015 Hypervelocity Impact Symposium

Abstract

|The technical objective of the proposed effort is to support a unique annual forum for the study and discussion of hypervelocity impact phenomena. The proposal requests support for a unique forum for the discussion, interchange, and presentation of the physics of high- and |hypervelocity impact and related technical areas. The Hypervelocity Impact Society (HVIS) is a professional organization devoted to the |advancement of the science and technology of hypervelocity impact. Specific topics to be addressed as the 2015 Hypervelocity Impact Symposium include: hypervelocity phenomenology studies, high-velocity launchers and diagnostics, spacecraft meteoroid/debris shielding |and failure analyses, material response, fracture and fragmentation, high-velocity penetration mechanics and target response, armor/anti-armor and ballistic technology, analytical and numerical methodologies, asteroid impact and planetary defense technology, and theoretical/applied mechanics relevant to hypervelocity impact. The proposed support request will seek to provide support for invited speakers, materials and supplies, and publication costs.
