With a suite of high-end computing resources, IS4S is a go-to provider for structural integrity assessments of DoD weapons and components.  

Intimately familiar with MIL-STD airworthiness and SEEK Eagle requirements, our team has provided the critical engineering and computational physics capabilities to verify structural integrity sufficiency of multiple weapons and DoD components prior to flight.  

In support of DoD customers, IS4S provides state-of-the-art capabilities for characterizing advanced explosives and associated damage mechanisms. Our team designs and conducts tests in reinforced test chambers and open arenas, and we routinely field shock pressure gauges, flash panels, fiberboard bundles, witness plates, high-speed cameras, and more. Our analysis provides key metrics such as blast field pressure, fireball temperature, and fragment distribution/penetration. 

IS4S is leading design, fabrication, delivery, and performance testing of first-of-its-kind full-scale AM munitions that provide double the performance. These AM weapons were iteratively designed and simulated by IS4S using well-characterized high-strength AM metals. Our unique combination of warhead design domain knowledge, digital engineering simulation capabilities, and application of cutting-edge AM technologies is leading to significant increases in munition capability. 

Given mission parameters (range, cruise speed, cruise altitude, etc.) and initial estimates of aerodynamic properties, the system model iterates to optimize the design.

Each block contains an underlying analytical model of the components’ performance characteristics. Examples include wing loading, thrust to weight ratio, required power and energy, and design geometry.
