Organized by the AIAA Inlets, Nozzles & Propulsion Systems Integration Technical Committee. PAW Objectives: Assess the numerical prediction capability (meshing, numerics, turbulence modeling, high-performance computing requirements, etc.) of current-generation CFD technology/codes for inlets, diffusers, and nozzles and their propulsion-specific boundary conditions. Develop practical modeling guidelines for CFD prediction of propulsion flow...

ASCEND is the world’s first outcomes-focused, transdisciplinary conference designed to accelerate the building of our off-world future. It’s the premier opportunity to collaborate with 3,000+ civil and government leaders, national-security experts, engineers, innovators, businesspeople, policymakers, investors, researchers, and media to address the big questions and challenges facing the future of space and human civilization. Acce...

We Get You—Here, There, and Now Everywhere! The AIAA AVIATION Forum is the only aviation event that covers the entire integrated spectrum of aviation business, research, development, and technology. Given the current challenges posed by COVID-19, we feel that the virtual forum format provides the best opportunity for the AIAA community to meet and share information. By removing some of the barriers to traditional forum attendance, includ...

Hosted by CASI, the 23rd AIAA International Space Planes and Hypersonic Systems and Technologies Conference will provide a forum for the discussion and exchange of information for attendees from across the globe about leading-edge research and development activities associated with space planes and hypersonic atmospheric flight vehicles and the technologies underpinning these capabilities. Presentations will describe national programs from Nor...

The AIAA Propulsion and Energy Forum (AIAA Propulsion and Energy Forum) integrates the Joint Propulsion Conference and Exhibit (JPC) with the International Energy Conversion Engineering Conference (IECEC) into an annual event that brings together technologists, developers, operators, program managers, chief engineers, and policy makers to address aerospace propulsion and energy issues and challenges. Both JPC and IECEC have a long history and...

Every year AIAA has training for the Section Officers. This training comes in a variety of ways: Webinars, Region Advisory Committee (RAC) meetings, and the annual Regional Leadership Conference. The Regional Leadership Conferences are a great opportunity to meet fellow officers from the many different sections within AIAA. AIAA Regions and Sections vary in size from a few dozen people to many hundreds of people. The Regional Leadership Confer...

AIAA DEFENSE is a premier conference for technical exchange within aersopace defense and security arenas. The forum will provide you with an opportunity to learn about developments in the field from a deep bench of technical and keynote presenters, and discuss your findings in a U.S., SECRET level (or higher) clearance community. Attendance is limited to U.S. Citizenship and at least a SECRET security clearance. Registration for AIAA DEFENSE 2...

Addressing Full Spectrum Disruption Across the Global Aerospace Community Aerospace completely changed global transportation norms by taking us from the ground to the skies and eventually space. It's transformed the globe, bringing the world together with its communication and satellite technologies. It's now changing the way that we view our universe and those beyond. New innovations in autonomous systems will continue to create disruption. I...

The confluence of machine intelligence and aeronautics is the next great revolution in air transportation. In attempting to introduce an entirely new approach to vehicle management into the world’s safest transportation system, the Unmanned Aerial Systems (UAS) industry must merge two entirely different cultures: 1) Aviation safety-based and inherently risk averse2) Market-driven and experiment-based — while managing performance an...
