Within the Solid Mechanics Program at the Office of Naval Research
(ONR), our primary mission is to establish a basic research program
which addresses the funda mental issues in solid mechanics where a
clear scientific understanding is lacking. Our approach involves
first identifying the various scales at which material and
structural response and failure occur. Within each level of
behavior we address the basic mechanical phenomena for which a
clear physical description is not available. ONR's program
emphasizes experimental research to identify and quantify the
interacting behavior and response mechanisms. Theoretical and
computational approaches are developed to explain the details of
the physical processes and to establish the technology necessary to
control the thermomechanical behavior of materials and structures.
Within the Department of Defense, it is a natural evolution that
all new systems must generally operate in more demanding
environments than the systems they replace. Thus, structural
designers are pushed towards lighter weight, precision structures
utilizing new materials. In such an environment, structural design
mar gins simultaneously shrink and become more critical. Such
trends make it essential that a well founded scientific base for
the nondestructive detection and assessment of subcritical flaws in
structural materials and structures exist. Within the ONR Solid
Mechanics Program we are interested in both the identification of
flaws and assessment of their degree of criticality."
