• Applicants to the Air Force Summer Faculty Fellowship Program (SFFP) must be citizens or legal permanent residents of the United States.
  
• Applicants must hold a full-time appointment at a U.S. college or university.
  
• Selected fellows and their graduate students are expected to conduct research at an Air Force Research Laboratory Directorate, U.S. Air Force Academy, or the Air Force Institute of Technology, not at their home institution or any other site.

For more information, visit www.asee.org/sffp or email sffp@asee.org. Applications accepted through December 1, 2009.

Awards include 3 years of financial support including $30,000 annual stipend, $10,5000 annual cost-of-education allowance, and $1,000 one-time foreign travel allowance.

Eligibility

Citizenship: Opportunities at NRL are open to citizens of the United States and to legal permanent residents.
Security Clearance: It is anticipated that the basic research undertaken by the participants will usually be unclassified, in which case the participants will only need to be processed for a Facility Access Determination (FAD) if their sponsor verifies their need to work outside normal duty hours. For some laboratories, a DoD security clearance at "Secret" level may be required to gain access to research facilities, in which case participation in the program is contingent upon the participants obtaining the proper clearance. Security clearance and access requirements vary from laboratory to laboratory. Please check with the laboratory program coordinator.
Education and Experience: Before appointment, participants must present evidence of having received the Ph.D., Sc.D., or other earned research doctoral degree recognized in U.S. academic circles as equivalent to the Ph.D. within seven years of the date of application, or must present acceptable evidence of having completed all formal academic requirements for one of these degrees.
Prior Fellowships: A person who has received a prior postdoctoral fellowship at a navy laboratory under any program may not be eligible to participate in the NRL Postdoctoral Fellowship Program at the same laboratory.
Equal Opportunity: In accordance with Federal statutes and regulations and Navy policies, no person on the grounds of race, color, age, sex, national origin or disability shall be excluded from participation in, denied the benefits of, or be subject to discrimination under, any program or activity receiving financial assistance from the U.S. Navy.

The objective of the project is to research the military aircraft engine life assessment procedures. Currently the engine components use a method called safe life, which upon reaching, the components are retired. It is felt that these components have in them a considerable amount to usage left. Therefore, there is a need to review the methods used in the design of rotating disk components and also see various codes within military and civilian sides that are used. The position will not only look at the military side of the codes and civilian side, but also look into the engine manufacturers what they do to certify engines for civilian and military applications. The project will develop robust design methods/tools, via experimental and computational FEA works.

Hands on work with FEM modeling, inspection methods (non-destructive) testing and analysis will be required. The yearly stipend is $18,000 and tuition will be covered as well. Leadership quality, ability to work with different people (engineers and scientists at the Base) and places, industry and personal interests to develop and validate new hypotheses, developing interactive damage summation models will be required. Experience with FEM modeling and mechanical testing will be needed for this project. This student will work closely with a Research Professor both of whom will be located in a secure area for the project and will work for Dr. Tarun Goswami.

Those interested for consideration for this position, please contact Dr. Tarun Goswami at tarun.goswami@wright.edu

US citizenship will be required for this position and opportunity to work with the base exists right from the start of the project.

The deadline is September 03, 2008, so please do not delay. Awards of $50 per week per child may be made to five students.
