Blast Mitigation:
Abstract
This effort fabricates and matures advanced survivability and protection components, tools and subsystems for enhanced protection against vehicle mines, improvised explosive devices (IEDs) and other underbody blast threats, and vehicle collision and rollover events that result from blast events. This effort also integrates and improves occupant protection technologies such as seats and restraints. This effort creates the laboratory capability needed to enable expeditious performance evaluation through modeling and simulation (M&S), experimentation and instrumented test of blast-mitigating technologies in such areas as active and passive exterior/hull/cab/kits, interior energy absorbing capabilities for seats, floors, restraints, and sensors for active blast mitigating technologies. This effort is done in coordination with efforts in PE 0602601A.
