The University of New South Wales received a $115,500 project grant award from the Department of the Air Force on September 26, 2021 to support work completing on September 25, 2023. The grant funds research titled "Improved Simultaneous Mapping of Pressure and Strain for Hypersonic FSI Experiments" under the Air Force Defense Research Sciences Program (CFDA 12.800). This program aims to maintain Air Force technological superiority in scientific areas relevant to its needs by preventing technological surprise and creating it for adversaries through a strong research infrastructure. The University of New South Wales grant specifically supports developing improved methods for simultaneously mapping pressure and strain during hypersonic flight experiments involving fluid-structure interaction, yielding insights to advance Air Force hypersonic capabilities.
