The US Department of Defense is partnering with industry and academia on an initiative to leverage advanced light source analysis tools and methods to improve material identification, determine cause(s) of failures in transparent materials, develop and test remedies and expand a material data base for various transparent and other associated materials. Specific objectives include:

  • Developing methods to detect and remediate stress within layers of transparent materials
  • Determining new advanced materials that can help ensure transparent materials and laminated glass perform better and last longer under extreme conditions and extended durations
