Armed with Science  

Armed with Science: Research and Applications for the Modern Military is a weekly webcast that discusses the importance of science and technology to military operations and the Department of Defense. We interview scientists, administrators, and operators to inform our listeners about cutting-edge scientific research and development sponsored by various defense offices. Tweet questions to @ArmedwScience and get SCIENCED!

    For almost 60 years, the Air Force Office of Scientific Research (AFOSR) has expanded the horizon of scientific knowledge through its leadership and management of the Air Force’s basic research program. The resulting accomplishments have led to the creation of numerous revolutionary capabilities, which have been the result of a continuous search to identify and fund exceptional talent working on the frontiers of science. The many AFOSR-funded breakthroughs throughout its history have been the cornerstones in critical areas that directly support the Air Force mission; from lasers and stealth to space weather and self-healing materials. Dr. Brendan Godfrey, director of AFOSR, will discuss the organization’s plans for continued success and the development of the next generation of outstanding scientists and engineers throughout the world.

    Episode #44: Army and National Institute of Mental Health Collaborate on Suicide Study

    Dr. Robert Heinssen, acting director of Division of Services and Intervention Research at the National Institute of Mental Health, will discuss the largest study of suicide and mental health among military personnel ever undertaken--the Army Study to Assess Risk and Resilience in Service members (Army STARRS). Suicide rates among Army personnel have risen substantially since the beginning of the current conflicts in Iraq and Afghanistan despite major surveillance and intervention efforts introduced by the Army. With $50 million in Army funding, NIMH investigators aim to identify risk and protective factors for suicide among Soldiers and provide a science base for effective and practical interventions to reduce suicide rates and address associated mental health problems.The appearance of advertising on this Web site, does not constitute endorsement by the Department of Defense, of the products or services advertised on this site.

    Episode #43: The Joint Typhoon Warning Center -- Tropical Weather Support

    In its 50th year of operations, the Joint Typhoon Warning Center (JTWC) provides tropical cyclone reconnaissance, forecasts and warnings in the 110 million square miles encompassed by the Pacific and Indian Oceans for the U.S. Department of Defense. LCDR Jeremy Callahan, the JTWC Operations Officer, will discuss the basics of tropical meteorology along with how the Joint Typhoon Warning Center is able to complete their mission with the use of the latest weather satellite technology, improvements in computer modeling, and through partnerships with other agencies.The appearance of advertising on this Web site, does not constitute endorsement by the Department of Defense, of the products or services advertised on this site.

    Episode #42: Sensor-Enhanced Armor – TARDEC’s Key to Better Vehicle Protection

    Small embedded transducers gathering sound-wave information are delivering real-time vehicle armor health monitoring systems that could eventually help protect our Nation’s warfighters. Dr. Thomas Meitzler, scientist at the U.S. Army Tank Automotive Research, Development and Engineering Center (TARDEC), will discuss how this sensor-enhanced armor could provide Soldiers with better situational awareness.

    Episode #41: Quantum Ghost Imaging

    Ron Meyers, quantum physicist at the Army Research Laboratory, will discuss a new way of seeing objects that were once hidden from sight. He and his team are credited in taking quantum ghost imaging from a physics curiosity and making it a discipline with many applications. Through computing the quantum effect of objects, this “ghost image” has the ability to appear not by actually seeing it, but by calculating the light patterns coming from it. Using virtually any light source, from a fluorescent bulb, lasers, or even the sun, quantum ghost imaging can give a clearer depiction of objects by eliminating atmospheric conditions that conventional imaging can’t.

    Episode #39: Naval Research Laboratory -- Energy Research for Force Mobility

    Dr. Barry Spargo, head of the Chemical Dynamics and Diagnostics Branch at the Naval Research Laboratory, will discuss research options that show great promise for providing new sources of power and energy for force mobility and reducing dependence on domestic and foreign fuels. Energy is an essential component in the protection of vital interests in an interconnected and uncertain world. As global first responders, the U.S. Navy and Marine Corps rely on readily available, reliable sources of energy to perform a variety of missions, and the vulnerability of energy supplies could jeopardize naval forces' ability to support forces afloat and ashore. The Department of the Navy's energy strategy aims to decrease U.S. naval forces’ dependence on foreign fuel sources. Science and technology investments will provide many solutions.The appearance of advertising on this Web site, does not constitute endorsement by the (Department of Defense), of the products or services advertised on this site.
