Other TC Issues (cont.) • From John Bibel, Technical Warrant Holder for Missiles for the Navy's Surface Ships • Admiral McCoy, the Naval Sea Systems Command Chief Engineer, has initiated a study of 10 various military specifications, including one for near miss shock, MIL-S-901D. In particular, he is asking the government and our industry partners to examine the cost impact of our specifications in order to enable the Navy's shipbuilding plan. • I was wondering if the AIAA (Structures TC, in particular) or any other industry group that you know of might have an existing report, policy paper, or white paper from a study that examined the impact of 901D/shock and would be willing to share with our NAVSEA study team. • Likewise, I am also taking inputs as to the potential for the AIAA to participate in a study on 901D shock if time permits.
Other TC Issues (cont.) • From Cindy Martin-Brennan, AIAA Life Sciences and Systems Technical Committee Member Habitation Institute Public Policy • Organizing a workshop for the Army Research Office (ARO) that will focus on advanced barriers and structures for base camp sustainability. • Are there experts within your TC who could have further discussions with me in regards to participating in a workshop or can recommend industry experts (e.g., either aerospace or non-aerospace), I would certainly appreciate any help and advice you can offer.
