- Description
- This notice is provided for information purposes only. NASA LaRC awarded a costplus fixed fee task order to The Boeing Company entitled Novel Control Effectors forTruss Braced Wing. This award results from a competitive selection under the NationalAeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Headquarters released NASA ResearchAnnouncement (NRA) for foundational research in support of the Aeronautics ResearchMission Directorate (ARMD), entitled 'Research Opportunities in Aeronautics (ROA) 2010under NNH10ZEA001N, Amendment 3, A.2 Subsonic Fixed Wing (SFW1). The United States (US)is highly dependent on the health of the aviation and aerospace industry as itcontributes to the transport of passengers and cargo domestically and abroad to thesecurity of US homeland. The Subsonic Fixed Wing Project was identified to address thechallenge of enabling dramatic improvements in noise and emissions reduction, as well asperformance characteristics of those subsonic/transonic aircraft. The Project willspecifically develop improved prediction methods and technologies for lower noise, loweremissions, and higher performance for subsonic aircraft. The planned ten year strategyprovides novel test methods and validation prediction tools that can be used to improvesystem trades for advanced concepts that are capable of meeting long-term noise,emissions, and performance targets. The Project supports the Fundamental Aeronautics Program which directly benefits thepublic through the development of techniques and concepts for both subsonic andsupersonic vehicles that are cleaner, quieter, and more energy efficient. The publicalso benefits from the continued growth in the transport of passengers and cargo as webecome dependent on future air vehicles that can meet demanding environmental andperformance challenges. This award is consistent with NASA's continuing investment in high-risk, cutting-edgetechnologies and is responsive to congressional direction to conduct research thatadvances ideas, concepts, technologies, and approaches to aeronautics challenges.
