  8. P&E Meeting Key Notes: NEM • Intense Effort To Realign AIAA Conference Portfolio Began In 2009; “Imperative For Change ” Increasingly Clear • Disposition Of Current JPC/IECEC Event Was Problematic From The Start –Much Debate & Many Heated Discussions • P&E Community Maintained A Consistent Message – JPC Is An Irreplaceable Crown Jewel And Must Be Built Upon; Collocation Of JPC & IECEC A Model First Step For NEM Philosophy • In May 2012 TAC & BoD Approved A “Five Forum” Model Which Included The New “Propulsion & Energy Forum & Exposition” • Unresolved Issue Regarding P&E Support Of Aviation And Space Forums – P&E Participation Viewed As Essential By TAC Leadership But Challenging By P&E TCs • P&E NEM Workshop Conducted At JPC 2012 To Address NEM Issues • Workshop Summary Presented Herein • Meanwhile… Forum Structure Being Standardized; SciTech (ASM) Leading The Pack

  9. P&E Meeting Key Notes: NEM • Invite Sent To All P&E Members • Workshop Held On Sunday, July 29, 2012; 45 Participants • Provided NEM Overview & Divided Into 5 Team • Team Leads: Jimmy Kenyon , Dick Shaw, Chris Pestak, Rob Black, M.S. Anand • Teams Brainstormed On Two Specific Issues (details follow) • How To Grow to JPC/IECEC Into New P&E Forum? • How To Successfully Support Other Forums? • Summarize Comments On Flip-Charts; Team Outbriefs • Notes Compiled By AIAA Staff • Developed Prioritized Recommendations Based On Assimilation Of All Feedback

  10. From P&E NEM Workshop, July 29. 2012 Question 1: Growth to P&E Forum Question 1: How should we evolve the current JPC/IECEC collocated event to the “Propulsion & Energy Forum” envisioned in the New Event Model? How do we improve the content, increase the value, and grow attendance? Example questions to consider: • How do we best implement the NEM vision; are there radical changes to JPC/IECEC we should consider? • How do we retain/enhance multiple-society involvement (the “Joint” in JPC)? • What other Conferences/Events should we try to align with the P&E Forum? • How do we achieve better ties between the Aeronautics and Space sides of our discipline? • How do we improve Keynote & Plenary Sessions? • How do we enhance the presence of “energy” including Green initiatives? • How do we increase corporate sponsorship?

  11. From P&E NEM Workshop, July 29. 2012 Question 2: Support Of Other Forums Question 2: We are committed to developing a premier P&E Forum, but also must support the overall Institute direction on NEM. Other Forums, in particular Aviation and Space, can not be successful without a P&E presence. How do we achieve all these objectives? Example questions to consider: • Are there “out of the box” options we should consider, such as moving the JPC/IECEC event to January to align with the S&T Forum? • Is there a way to rotate or assign support between TC’s such that such that each TC isn’t attempting to support more than two Forums a year? • What is the minimum presence that that would make the Aviation and/or Space Forums attractive to you and your colleagues • Are there innovative ways to participate that we haven’t considered?

  13. P&E NEM workshop product summary – Topic 2 (as of 9/26/12) 13

  14. P&E Meeting Key Notes: NEM • JPC/IECEC Legacy Preserved With… We Now Have To Make It Work • We Are 1 Year From NEM Rollout - SciTech 2014 (Rebranded ASM) • 2013 & 2014 P&E Events Progressing… But Long Term Plan Not In Place • Workshop Provided Good Data & Recommendations • Need To Access All Data & Move Forward January June July August Winter

  15. P&E Meeting Key Notes: Awards • Gordon C. Oates Air Breathing Propulsion & Martin Summerfield Propellants and Combustion Graduate Awards Are Funded By The AIAA Foundation (AIAAF) • Both Awards Are Currently Suspended - Negative Balance • TAC/Sponsoring TC’s Were Never Informed Of Developing Issues; TC’s Only Found Out Upon Inquiry In May, 2012 • Foundation Accounting Is Incomplete & Incorrect (Next Chart); Authoritative History Lost; Original Oates’ “Endowment” Unknown • AIAAF Implementing Corrective Actions For All Awards • AIAAF/TAC Working To Find Specific Path Forward For Oates & Summerfield; Agenda Item At ASM TAC Meeting • Path Forward Will Almost Certainly Require TC Involvement To Raise TBD Portion Of Funds Necessary To “Re-Endow” The Awards… Without TC Action, Awards Unlikely To Be Reinstated

  16. P&E Meeting Key Notes: Awards From AIAAF as of 30 September, 2012

  17. P&E Meeting Key Notes: Awards • Wyld award did not receive enough applications to go forward. Need at least three; have one carryover from last year. • May be too late, but if you have a nomination for consideration, please get them submitted ASAP. • JPC 2013 papers are down slightly, AIAA willing to accept additional abstracts until February.
