Blast Mitigation:
Abstract
This effort designs, fabricates and matures advanced survivability and protection components, tools and subsystems for enhanced protection against vehicle mines, improvised explosive devices (IEDs) and other underbody threats, and crash 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 research and development of blast-mitigating technologies in such areas as active and passive exterior/hull/cab/kits, interior energy absorbing capabilities for seats, floors, restraints, sensors for active technologies and performance evaluation, M&S, experimentation and instrumentation.This effort is done in coordination with efforts in 0602601A, project C05. In FY13 and FY14, this effort supports Technology Enabled Capability Demonstration 1.c: Force Protection - Occupant Centric Platform.
