UTEP to Boost Training of Next-Gen Engineers with $5.3M Grant
The University of Texas at El Paso is scaling up its role in preparing the next generation of engineers for U.S. aerospace and defense manufacturing sectors. The effort is supported by a new $5,300,000 grant from the Air Force Research Laboratory.
UAH researcher awarded $650K to develop propulsion system to boost surveillance of space between Earth and Moon
Dr. John Bennewitz, an assistant professor in the Department of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering at The University of Alabama in Huntsville (UAH), has been awarded a $650,000, 45-month Air Force Office of Scientific Research (AFOSR) grant to develop an advanced propulsion system that will facilitate surveillance of space between the Earth and the Moon by the United States Space Force.
Developing multifunctional composite materials for aerospace applications
The multifunctionality build into natural systems, such as shells and exoskeletons,may serve as inspiration for the development of new composites for aerospace applications.
Microwaves Used to Deactivate Coronavirus, Flu, Other Aerosolized Viruses
As the pandemic continues, scientists are increasingly focused on developing methods to assist in decontaminating surfaces and spaces. In Review of Scientific Instruments, researchers report on experimental tools capable of presenting electromagnetic waves to an aerosol mixture with the capability to vary power, energy, and frequency of the electromagnetic exposure. The researchers seek to better characterize the threshold levels of microwave energy needed to inactivate aerosolized viral particles and reduce their ability to spread infection.
