The US Department of Energy’s (DOE’s) Office of Fossil Energy (FE) has announced up to US$5 million in federally funded financial assistance for research and development projects under the funding opportunity announcement (FOA) DE-FOA-0002398, ‘University Training and Research for Fossil Energy Applications’. This funding opportunity will encompass two separate university programmes, each with its own requirements and each with specific eligibility requirements. The two programs are University Coal Research (UCR) Programme and Historically Black Colleges and Universities and Other Minority Institutions (HBCU-OMI) Programme.
The National Energy Technology will manage the projects, which will support DOE’s Crosscutting Research Program and facilitate long-term, high-risk fundamental research that advances the science of coal technologies at eligible US colleges and universities. The projects supported by the UCR and HBCU-OMI programmes enable segments of the c

NASA and the Air Force Office of Scientific Research are backing a team of four universities, led by The University of Texas at Austin, in a project to re-define sensing and analysis of hypersonic vehicles, which can travel at least five times the speed of sound and potentially revolutionize space and air travel.
The three-year, $3.3 million project is funded by NASA s University Leadership Initiative, and the team s goal is to create a new paradigm in sensing for hypersonic vehicles, which could also be applied to lower-speed craft. The project Full Airframe Sensing Technology (FAST) will treat the vehicles themselves as sensors, analyzing aerodynamic changes during flight tests, and use that information to infer where force is being applied so they can better pr
