The Symposium was established in 1947 and includes both classified and unclassified sessions. The classified sessions allow critical technology and classified (up to secret level) research to be presented in closed forums of cleared US Government and government-contractor researchers. Topics covered at the symposium include shock-ship testing, water shock, weapons effects (air blast, ground shock, cratering, penetration) shock physics, earthquake engineering, structural dynamics, and shock and vibration instrumentation and experiment techniques. Over 200 technical papers are typically presented. Panel discussions address topics such as new software developments or accelerometer isolation problems. Tutorials provide up-to-date technology overviews by leading specialists.

SURVIAC Liaison Workshop
Category: Survivability
Oct 26, 2010 - Oct 28, 2010
SURVIAC
2700 D Street, Building 1661
Wright-Patterson AFB, Ohio
Additional Info:
Description:
The Survivability/Vulnerability Information Analysis Center (SURVIAC) invites you to join our annual SURVIAC Liaison Workshop at our facility at Wright Patterson AFB, Ohio. SURVIAC implemented this innovative liaison program to expand the survivability/ vulnerability user base through the on site training of Government and Industry volunteers located remotely from the Wright Patterson AFB Ohio office. The purpose of the Liaison training program is two-fold. The objective is to increase the knowledge about SURVIAC and what resources we have to support other agency’s/company’s mission. The second objective is to inform us about your respective needs so that we can better support you in the future. The workshop is open to government and industry personnel. Three days will be spent investigating databases and libraries, performing searches, reviewing products and models, reviewing Technical Area Tasks, becoming familiar with key survivability and lethality agencies, as well as simply becoming familiar with the day-to-day operation of the SURVIAC office. Discussions will be held relative to ongoing efforts in the survivability/lethality communities and a briefing will be presented by the Defense Technical Information Center (DTIC) Information Analysis Center (IAC) Program Office. Each participant will be informed on how the IACs and DTIC interrelate and how they are available to support the varied warfighter missions. We will also discuss the future transition from current SURVIAC to a future Multiple Award Contract and a separate Basic Core Operation. The last day will be spent discussing the needs of each liaison and how a more effective relationship through this program might be established. In addition to the instruction, participants will receive products and models of their choice. Cost of the workshop is $1000.00. Attendees will come away with the realization that a vast amount of information is available both at SURVIAC and throughout the community
