Small unmanned aerial systems (sUAS) have proven to be an effective tool for surveillance, intelligence, and reconnoitering (ISR) operations. These systems are also becoming more readily available for use by DOD organizations due to the emergence of the U

50% of the entire cost to put a million-dollar satellite into orbit comes from the satellite’s solar panels. Even worse, these panels lose 10-15% efficiency each YEAR from radiation exposure. These Chinese manufactured solar panels put U.S. national secur

The proliferation of space objects and the advancement of adversarial capabilities has created a space domain that is increasingly contested, congested, and complex. In this dynamic threat environment, new approaches to space domain awareness (SDA) that e

In the realm of cyber operations a compromised identity puts warfighter lives at risk and may result in failed operations. The cyber operator of today needs to contend with the next generation of online counterintelligence (CI) and protect their cover. Ne

Hypersonic aerial vehicles have tailored aerodynamic shapes with sharp leading edges to maximize performance. When a vehicle is travelling through the atmosphere at hypersonic speeds of Mach 5 or higher, it encounters intense friction with the surrounding air. The nose cone and the leading edges of the flight vehicle will experience extremely high temperatures from 3000°F to 5000°F. Ultra-High T ...

Pepin Associates, Inc. has developed a unique, aligned discontinuous textile reinforcement for composite structures.  This reinforcement architecture is composed of short, overlapped tow segments.  The architecture allows the textile to stretch in its reinforcement direction.  This ability permits rapid fabrication of complex shaped thermal protection system structures from simple low cost sh ...

This overall research program is oriented towards a deeper experimental and theoretical understanding of meteorological properties of the marine wave boundary layer (MWBL) and laser light propagation in the marine environment. The main objective is to develop a periscope imaging, electronic warfare, and High Energy Laser (HEL) beam propagation model over the marine aerosol boundary layer for the i ...

When GTP discontinued the manufacture of WRe wire, it ended US-based production of a material critical in the operations of MWT/TWT equipment for defense applications.  The objective of this project is to produce a WRe wire that matches as closely as possible the wire produced by GTP while also potentially developing a process that meets or exceeds the yields achieved by GTP.  The wire produced ...

In the proposed effort, we will develop a method to produce accurate riblet profiles in outer mold line (OML) surfaces that significantly reduce viscous drag, require little or no maintenance, are inexpensive to apply or include in production or normal maintenance, and achieve long useful life, yielding fuel cost savings and extended range for military and civilian aircraft.
