The Air Force Institute of Technology in 2016 conducted experimental research to determine the optimum topology of hard-target penetrating warheads. By removing some of the warhead's exterior case mass and replacing it with an optimized current material interior support structure, a design is achievable that has comparable stiffness and increased lethality The potential for designing warheads tailored to their intended targets was demonstrated, which are additively manufactured by operational military forces. Finite element methods, dimensional analysis, design of experiments, response surface methodology feasibility studies, and design of a vacuum lighter than air vehicle will be used. Here, Hilton discusses aerospace structures that showed adverse advances.
