PERMIT NO. 29 July 19, 2021 SBIR effort to enhance measurement of hypersonic wind tunnel velocities demonstrated at Tunnel 9 By Bradley Hicks AEDC Public Affairs WHITE OAK, Md. – The measurement of ve- locity in a hypersonic wind tunnel facility is no easy feat. Along with the difficulties posed by the ex- tremely high speeds, the measurement process must be non-intrusive to prevent disturbance of the flow field, a possibility that is only heightened due to the low densities within the tunnel. But, thanks to a Small Business Innovation Re- search, or SBIR, program, accurate measurements at rates greater than 100 kHz, or 100,000 cycles per second, can now be obtained in the highest wind tunnel speed available at Arnold Engineering Development Complex Hypervelocity Wind Tun- nel 9 in White Oak, Maryland. Pictured is the setup of the 100 kHz burst-mode laser-based KTV system, which includes the high-energy burst-mode This SBIR was funded to Spectral Energies, laser and high-speed Optical Parametric Oscillator. The OPO was developed by Spectral Energies, LLC, as part of a Small Business Innovation Research project funded to the company to look into increasing the data rates for the See SBIR, page 3 measurement of velocities in hypersonic wind tunnels.

    Air Force Sexual Assault Court-Martial Summaries 2010 March 2015 – The Air Force is committed to preventing, deterring, and prosecuting sexual assault in its ranks. This report contains a synopsis of sexual assault cases taken to trial by court-martial. The information contained herein is a matter of public record. This is the final report of this nature the Air Force will produce. All results of general and special courts-martial for trials occurring after 1 April 2015 will be available on the Air Force’s Court-Martial Docket Website (www.afjag.af.mil/docket/index.asp). SIGNIFICANT AIR FORCE SEXUAL ASSAULT CASE SUMMARIES 2010 – March 2015 Note: This report lists cases involving a conviction for a sexual assault offense committed against an adult and also includes cases where a sexual assault offense against an adult was charged and the member was either acquitted of a sexual assault offense or the sexual assault offense was dismissed, but the member was convicted of another offense involving a victim. The Air Force publishes these cases for deterrence purposes. Sex offender registration requirements are governed by Department of Defense policy in compliance with federal and state sex offender registration requirements. Not all convictions included in this report require sex offender registration. Beginning with July 2014 cases, this report also indicates when a victim was represented by a Special Victims’ Counsel. Under the Uniform Code of Military Justice, sexual assaults against those 16 years of age and older are charged as crimes against adults. The appropriate disposition of sexual assault allegations and investigations may not always include referral to trial by court-martial.

  • Aerospace Valley Air Show
    AEROSPACE VALLEY AIR SHOW OCTOBER 10-11, 2020 EDWARDS AFB SPONSORSHIP & ADVERTISING OPPORTUNITIES ABOUT US The 412th Test Wing is the host wing for Edwards Air Force Base, Calif. -- the 2nd largest base in the Air Force. The wing oversees base day-to-day operations and provides support for over 10,000 military, federal civilian and contract personnel assigned to a 481 square mile installation. The 412th Test Wing plans, conducts, analyzes, and reports on all flight and ground testing of aircraft, weapons systems, software and components as well as modeling and simulation for the U.S. Air Force. There are three core components for this mission: flying operations, maintenance and engineering. Hundreds of significant aviation “firsts” have been accomplished at Edwards. This is where Capt. Chuck Yeager and the Bell X-1 first broke the sound barrier on Oct. 14, 1947, and where other X-planes pushed that record to two, three, four, five and six times the speed of sound and beyond. It is here that the X-15 probed the threshold of space and where the space shuttle first landed on its initial return from earth’s orbit. Today, our combined workforce is still at the cutting edge of aviation technology, developing, testing and evaluating the newest weapon systems and aircraft to ensure reliability for America’s war-fighters. Edwards is the test-bed for today’s premiere aerospace technology programs including the Global Hawk, Hypersonic flight, and of course the F-35 Joint Strike Fighter. As aviation-friendly as our unique geography is, there is no more valuable asset than the 13,000 people who live and work here.
