“Skyward wins $1M Air Force Digital Engineering Direct-to-Phase II SBIR award to enhance Skyward’s Rapid Structural Vulnerability Toolkit (RSVT) to rapidly determine the residual strength of damaged composite structures, develop machine learning damage representations, enable real-time dynamic loading, and ensure compatibility with Air Force vulnerability and endgame tools. The resulting product can be used to assess the structural vulnerability of aircraft early in the design cycle, test numerous designs before physical prototyping, and simulate realistic man-in-the-loop flight conditions with damaged aircraft.”
