NASA Aerogel Lecture Series: Lecture 7 - Achieving High Efficiency Separation in Gas and Liquids Using Aerogels

The Aerogel Lecture Series unveils the extraordinary potential of aerogels—a class of highly porous solid materials derived from a gel in which the liquid is replaced by gas while maintaining the self-assembled three-dimensional structure. This video presentation features Dr. Sadhan Jana from University of Akron.

Digitally-Engineered Impact Resistant Aerogel Composites for MMOD Protection (DIRAC-MP)

This project implemented a digital-engineering approach to optimize the impact absorption performance of polymer aerogels and aerogel-based composites for Micrometeoroids and Orbital Debris (MMOD) containment. We developed a curated materials database and a machine-learning framework to derive composition-response relationships, enabling predictive design and targeted material selection. In support of experimental validation, a split Hopkinson pressure bar (SHPB) test rig, specifically adapted for low-density aerogel materials, was designed and built in-house. This project accelerates the development of new aerogel formulations, producing candidate materials tailored for enhanced impact-absorption behavior.
