About this award
Texas A&M Engineering Experiment Station (TEES), a research institution within the Texas A&M University System, was awarded a $99,998 grant for research by a civilian federal agency's Shared Services Center on December 1, 2025. The award is structured as a research grant with an ultimate completion date of November 30, 2026, and will be performed at TEES' location in College Station, Texas. The project addresses two significant needs related to characterizing the dynamic stability of atmospheric entry capsules through computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulations, representing applied research in advanced aerospace engineering and vehicle design analysis.
This award carries no set-aside designation and reflects the competitive, full and open competition process typical of federal research grants awarded to higher education and research institutions. TEES' extensive portfolio of federal research contracts and grants—spanning work with the Department of Defense, NASA, Department of Energy, National Science Foundation, and other civilian agencies—positions the organization to deliver high-quality research outcomes in the specialized domain of atmospheric entry vehicle dynamics. The relatively modest grant ceiling of approximately $100,000 suggests a focused, project-based research effort that will contribute to advancing aerospace technology capabilities through computational modeling and analysis.
