The Air Force Research Laboratory’s Aerospace Systems Directorate (AFRL/RQSS) is offering this grant for collaborative research focused on advanced structural sciences. This funding opportunity aims to support critical investigations across three key thrust areas. Researchers are invited to propose work on adaptive, multi-scaling strategies for long-duration structural simulations in combined environments. Another area of interest includes developing damage-integrated, structural-thermal, reduced-order models for realistic structural components. Furthermore, the grant seeks high-fidelity, continuum-level models detailing constitutive and material damage evolution. This initiative is designed to push the boundaries of structural simulation and material behavior understanding.
