Project Announcement: Leveraging Optimization Tools and Processes to Reduce Weight and Improve Reliability

The US Army is partnering with industry and academia on an initiative to develop, pilot, and demonstrate a common set of processes and advance the state of modeling and simulation tools to optimize and lightweight critical parts and components that can improve maintenance and sustainment of ground vehicle systems. This initiative will focus on leveraging advanced design technologies and methodologies, materials, tools, manufacturing techniques, and design to explore the best light-weighting solutions for historically heavy suspension components.
