- Description
- Program Executive Office (PEO) Ammunition of the U.S. Government, located at Picatinny Arsenal, NJ, is sponsoring a ???Modeling and Simulation (M&S) Workshop to address the Challenges of Designing Insensitive Munitions???. Please respond to M&Sworkshop@pica.army.mil if you are interested in attending the workshop or interested in presenting to the group. Information on the M&S Workshop is listed below: Objective Statement ??? To achieve an improved understanding of how to utilize our current modeling and simulation capabilities to design Insensitive Munitions -------------------------------------- Why should we attend this meeting? ?? Potential Business Opportunities ?? Learn basic and advanced topics in IM M&S ?? Establish Contacts ?? Meet subject matter (theoretical, M&S, Experimental) experts ?? Provide feedback to subject matter experts on theoretical, M&S and experimental project needs ?? Learn new ways and ideas to utilize M&S to save project money, time, and lower project risk. ?? Listen to workshop summary comments from experts and spectators ---------------------------------------- The Planned Audience PEO Ammunition ARDEC experts, project and technical personnel ARL experts, project and technical personnel DOD Services experts, project and technical personnel DOE experts, project and technical personnel U.S. Contractors U.S. Academia Possible other U.S. Government agencies ------------------------------------------ Place Albany, NY ------------------------------------------ Proposed date September 19, 20, 21, 2006 ------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------- Plan -- Government Sponsor -- Program Executive Office (PEO) Ammunition, Picatinny Arsenal, New Jersey Scope -- A three day work shop with Department of Defense Services, Department of Energy, U.S. government agencies, U.S. Contractors, and U.S. Universities presenting IM M&S capabilities to meet the challenges associated with the design of Insensitive Munitions. In addition, historical efforts on how M&S is used to reduce cost, save time, mitigate risk, optimize testing, troubleshoot, material characterization efforts and refine designs is also planned for a portion of the presentation. Sensitivity -- ???Open Workshop???, Unclassified, No proprietary information Spectators -- US Government, US Contractors, and US Academia Presentations -- 20 minutes with 10 minutes of questions Scheduled Plan -- Day 1 ??? Explosives, warheads, boosters, fuze, sub-munitions, grenades, projectiles, bombs, and mortars -- Insensitive Munitions M&S design applications, all day -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ---------------------------- Day 2 ??? Propellants, charges, and rocket motors (morning) -- Insensitive Munitions M&S design applications, morning Day 2 ??? Packing and shipping containers (afternoon) -- Insensitive Munitions M&S design applications, afternoon -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ---------------------------- Day 3 ???
