2. AIAA High Speed Air Breathing Propulsion (HSABP) Technical Committee The HSABP TC brings together experts in high speed air breathing propulsion, providing the opportunity to exchange research findings, ideas, disseminate knowledge, and network within colleagues from around the globe. We leverage the application of mechanical design, fluid mechanics, thermodynamics, science and technology of systems that enable supersonic and hypersonic vehicle propulsion, including: Ramjets and Scramjets; Combined cycle systems and Unsteady propulsion devices (e.g. Pulse Detonation Engines). We work to advance high speed air breathing propulsion technology by: Developing and sponsoring technical sessions and other conferences of interest; Coordinate with other AIAA TCs and PCs and other technical societies to organize and promote joint sessions and activities; Provide for technical communications and reviews, educational activities, and awards recognition of special achievements. We also provide AIAA with authoritative technical opinions and public policy recommendations on subjects related to high speed propulsion. 2

3. AIAA High Speed Air Breathing Propulsion (HSABP) Technical Committee Members of the AIAA HSABP Technical Committee develop and administer over 20 technical conference sessions each year; organize and conduct professional development courses; edit books and publish white papers; honor technical leadership through technical and best paper awards; serve as reviewers for journal papers and books; formulate technology assessment packages for the non-technical public; develop and judge undergraduate design competitions; work with K-12 students and their teachers to promote STEM education; and do much more to promote and disseminate air breathing propulsion technology 3

8. AIAA HSABP TC Courses (2010) Pulse Detonation Engines Course will present a comprehensive overview of air-breathing Pulse Detonation Engines and other Constant Volume Combustion (CVC) propulsion concepts, including detonation combustion theory, performance metrics, fuels and initiation systems, detonation physics research, technical challenges, and opportunities for development of PDEs. CVC approach is recognized as having the potential to significantly impact multiple propulsion applications. The course will address how CVC technology can be integrated into a turbine engine through different architectures. Numerical Propulsion System Simulation (NPSS): An Introduction The objective of this course is to give attendees a working knowledge of the Numerical Propulsion System Simulation (NPSS) code and allow them to create and/or modify system models using this software tool. Course is co-sponsored by AIAA Air Breathing Propulsion Systems Integration Gas Turbine Engines, and High Speed Air Breathing Propulsion Technical Committees 8
