About this award

This Project Grant award of $124,911.52 from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Shared Services Center supports work under the NASA Science Mission Directorate's Science program (CFDA 43.001). Carnegie Mellon University will leverage advances in mechanical metamaterials to design lightweight, deployable structures with unprecedented expansion ratios of over 150 times. Specifically, the University will develop mechanism models and dynamic models for ultra-expandable unit cells and tiled constructs. Additionally, under a subaward of $TBD, the University of Washington will develop a mechanism model and dynamic explicit finite element model for the deployable unit cell technology. The award period is from April 1, 2021 to December 31, 2021, supporting the program's strategic goal of expanding human knowledge through new scientific discoveries via aerospace research programs.
