Worldwide Campus Faculty Member Awarded Air Force Research Grant

Dr. Brian Sanders, assistant professor at Embry-Riddle Worldwide, and Dr. Chris Fuller, of Virginia Tech, have received a three-year, $357,000 grant from the U.S. Air Force Office of Scientific Research.

His proposal, “Acoustically-Inspired Heterogeneous Materials and Systems for Microwave Attenuation,” was approved late last month. Sanders and Fuller will research ways the Department of Defense and Air Force can use advanced material systems to combat the future use of microwave weapons.
