LIFT seeks increased development of hypersonic materials and processes for manufacturing to support the OSD’s requirement for Cross Platform System’s Development. ALMMII, the Great Lakes Region’s premier advanced manufacturing and economic development asset, is rapidly becoming the nation’s leader in strengthening the industrial base and accelerating manufacturing process technology. LIFT has invested in and developed a significant ICME hypersonic capability and infrastructure via team projects. LIFT proposes a rapid design of advanced future generation hypersonic materials and manufacturing processes for application in the time frame beyond 2025. Materials focused on those that offer functionally graded optimization which are manufactured through a cold-spray additive process. ICME capabilities will be developed to model and simulate the manufacture of these functionally graded materials systems allowing for agile and fast deployment in various component geometries and uses.
