This work proposes a novel approach to military transformation,
'Adaptive Transformation, '; that accounts for an inescapable
reality in the current and future operational environment:
uncertainty. Military planners and decision makers have to face
long-term, evolutionary, and transformational changes under two
major premises. First, military transformation needs to be
conceptualized as a continuously evolving, self-adapting process.
Second, the terms that define its desired end state need revision,
as the quest for an unequivocal, well-defined end state can derail
the process. 'Adaptive Transformation'; benefits from complex
systems theory and principles of the Art of Design. A systemic
approach to tackle military transformation through the lens of
complexity offers a useful intellectual approach to address
transformational issues. Moreover, the Art of Design provides a
methodology that seems ideally suited to tackling the complex,
ill-defined problems that military transformation embodies. A
theory on the design of military transformation helps address the
military planner's dilemma. An 'Adaptive Transformation Cycle';,
based on four cognitive spaces, encompasses at the institutional
level the inner 'Adaption Cycle'; that functions at the operational
level. Both processes are complementary and self-reinforcing in
nature, with the former providing a higher level of adaptation
informed by design. The fourth cognitive space, the 'engagement
space, '; gives meaning to this construct, as it represents the
institution's ongoing physical and cognitive interaction with the
environment. This research ends with several conclusions on the
application of complexity theory and the Art of Design to military
transformation, and some recommendations for military planners
involved in transformational issues. Adaptive Transformation is the
proposed intellectual and operational approach to adequately
address Armed Forces'; evolution in the 21st century.
The current U.S. Army Transformation process has experienced
several changes due to operational commitments in the Global War on
Terror (GWOT) and different perceptions about required military
capabilities among political and military authorities. Nonetheless,
the change from a division-centric Army to a brigade-centric one
has remained an essential tenet of the Future Force. This change is
being implemented amidst ongoing operations in the GWOT. The
Stryker Brigade Combat Team (SBCT), derived from the initial
concept of an Interim Force, has been employed both as a stop-gap
measure to fill immediate operational needs, and as a prototype to
test the design of the Future Force's brigade. An analysis of the
evolution and implementation of both, the brigade-centric
construct, and the SBCT's organization and capabilities, yields
valuable lessons learned from these parallel processes. The Spanish
Armed Forces are also involved in a transformational process, which
includes conversion of its brigades as an essential milestone.
Consequently, insights derived from U.S. Army experiences may prove
valuable for the ongoing Spanish Army transformation--as well as
for other armies attempting to implement similar changes. This
study presents several conclusions from the U.S. transformational
experience to a brigade-centric army, and lessons learned from the
evolution and operational commitments of the SBCT, presented in a
warfighting functions approach. The final result is ten
recommendations, derived from an analysis of the concepts and
practical experiences of the U.S. Army that might be applicable for
the Spanish Army transformation.
Zeolites are natural or synthetic materials with porous chemical
structures that are valuable due to their absorptive and catalytic
qualities. Metal-Organic Frameworks (MOFs) are manmade
organometallic polymers with similar porous structures. This
introductory book, with contributions from top-class researchers
from all around the world, examines these materials and explains
the different synthetic routes available to prepare zeolites and
MOFs. The book also highlights how the substances are similar yet
different and how they are used by science and industry in
situations ranging from fueling cars to producing drugs.
