About this award
Auburn University received a $29,837.52 research grant from a civilian Shared Services Center to conduct a non-intrusive experimental investigation of crater formation and plume surface interaction dynamics using scaling law-based approaches. The research will be performed at Auburn University's campus in Auburn, Alabama, with a completion date of January 19, 2025. No set-aside designation was applied to this award, indicating open competition based on technical merit. This grant represents Auburn University's continued role as a significant federal research partner, complementing the university's extensive portfolio of aerospace, materials science, and advanced engineering research projects across multiple federal agencies.
The modest ceiling value of approximately $29.8K suggests this represents targeted fundamental research or an exploratory phase of a larger scientific investigation. Auburn University has a well-established track record in fluid dynamics and experimental research relevant to aerospace applications, including prior work with NASA on materials characterization and advanced manufacturing technologies. The research objectives—focusing on crater formation and plume dynamics—align with applications in planetary science, impact mechanics, or propulsion system development, areas where Auburn's engineering and aerospace research capabilities are actively engaged with federal sponsors.
