  8. AIAA HSABP TC Past Courses Pulse Detonation Engines 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 was co-sponsored by AIAA Air Breathing Propulsion Systems Integration Gas Turbine Engines, and High Speed Air Breathing Propulsion Technical Committees • Course presented 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.

  11. NASA/USAF Hypersonic Science Centers NASA and the United States Air Force designated three university and industry partners in California, Texas and Virginia as national hypersonic science centers. The new centers will advance research in air-breathing propulsion, materials and structures, and boundary layer control for aircraft that can travel at Mach 5 and faster. NASA’s Aeronautics Research Mission Directorate in Washington and the Air Force Research Laboratory’s Office of Scientific Research in Arlington, Va., selected the University of Virginia in Charlottesville, Texas A&M University in College Station and Teledyne Scientific & Imaging LLC of Thousand Oaks, Calif., from more than 60 respondents to a broad agency announcement.

  20. Nomination of New TC Members The AIAA HSABP TC invites colleagues involved in research, development, teaching, and application of high speed air breathing propulsion to join us. The nomination period is open on 1 August for terms starting in May of the following year. However, nominations may be submitted at any time, and are held until 1 August to be submitted. Nominees should be individual AIAA members, or be ready to join if appointed. The HSABP TC has between 30 and 35 members. Nearly one-third of the members rotate off the committees each year, leaving six to ten openings per year. The TC chairs work diligently to maintain a good balance in (1) appropriate representation to the field from industry, research, education, and government; (2) the specialties covered in the specific TC scopes; and (3) geographical distribution relative to the area’s technical activity. Young professionals, women, and international members are especially encouraged to apply. For additional information, please contact Betty Guillieat 703/264-7573.
