Research abstract
THE PHASE I PROGRAM WILL IDENTIFY REENTRY VEHICLE (RV) DECOY COATING CONCEPTS THAT REPLICATE THE METRIC BEHAVIOR OF THE RV COATING CONCEPTS WILL BE DEVISED TO MINIMIZE THE IMPULSE LOAD GENERATION IN A NUCLEAR X-RAY ENCOUNTER. MATERIALS WILL BE SELECTED ON THE BASIS OF THEIR POTENTIAL FOR MEETING NON-NUCLEAR PERFORMANCE REQUIREMENTS. IMPULSE WILL BE MINIMIZED THROUGH THE SELECTION OF MATERIALS, OR COMBINATIONS OF MATERIALS, AND BY THE UNIQUE USE OF COATING GEOMETRY. ANALYTICAL EXPRESSION WILL BE DERIVED TO APPROXIMATE MULTI-DIMENSIONAL BLOW-OFF EFFECTS. THE TECHNICAL APPROACH FOR VERIFYING THE RESULTS WILL BE RECOMMENDED FOR A PHASE II PROGRAM.
