- This is a $135,000.00 grant for research awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the Regents of the University of Minnesota, doing business as the Office of Sponsored Projects Administration. The grant is for a project that addresses the objectives of the NASA FINESST program by training a Ph.D. student, studying how the Earth's geospace responds to solar forcing, and understanding the connections in the geospace system. The University of Minnesota is performing...
- This is a $123,851 grant award from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) to the Regents of the University of Minnesota, doing business as the Office of Sponsored Projects Administration, to conduct research on "GLOBAL MAPPING AT HIGH-RESOLUTION OF GLACIAL UNITS ON MARS: CALCULATING CONSTRAINTS ON THE LONG-TERM EVOLUTION OF THE MARTIAN CLIMATE." The award does not have a set-aside designation. The University of Minnesota is a major public research institution that...
- The University of Minnesota, doing business as Office of Sponsored Projects Administration, was awarded a $569,333.80 grant for research by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) on June 15, 2018. The grant, which does not have a set-aside designation, will fund a project to study how existing proteins can evolve to adopt novel functions and how the earliest functional proteins may have emerged through Darwinian evolution. The research aims to screen combinatorial libraries...
- This $303,000 federal contract award to the Regents of the University of Michigan was issued by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) under the Space Technology Mission Directorate. The contract is for the development of high-fidelity material response modeling for resin-infused woven thermal protection systems (TPS) to be used in future space exploration missions. The work will focus on two main modeling components: coupled computational fluid dynamics-surface chemistry...
The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) has awarded a $315,000 training grant to the Regents of the University of Minnesota, doing business as the Office of Sponsored Projects Administration, to conduct research on modeling the thermal protection system response to micrometeoroid and orbital debris impacts for Mars sample return missions. The research aims to develop numerical models to better understand the thermal and structural effects of damage to the thermal protection system, which is a key challenge in certifying the reliability of the Earth entry vehicle. The work aligns with NASA's Space Technology Roadmaps under Entry, Descent, and Landing. This is not a set-aside contract, and the University of Minnesota has prior experience as a prime contractor and subcontractor on federal research, testing, and program implementation contracts and grants across various agencies, including NASA, the Navy, and the National Institutes of Health.
