Utility-scale wind turbine blade design and production has remained relatively unchanged over the past 25 years. A National Renewable Energy (NREL)-led project is looking to evolve beyond business as usual, with the help of a recently announced FOA award from the U.S. Department of Energy s (DOE s) Advanced Manufacturing Office (AMO).

Clemson University will play a significant role in advancing the nation s environmental, energy, and national security research and workforce development efforts as a member of the Battelle Savannah River Alliance (BSRA) that will now manage the Savannah River National Laboratory (SRNL).
Clemson faculty have worked with scientists at SRNL for three decades to study solutions to nuclear waste storage, advanced materials, environmental protection and energy security. The long-standing relationship has resulted in numerous internships for Clemson undergraduate and graduate students who have had unique opportunities to conduct research with SRNL scientists and Clemson faculty. The new partnership is expected to bring even more opportunities.

IARPA Launches Space-Based Machine Automated Recognition Technique Program
The Intelligence Advanced Research Projects Activity (IARPA), within the Office of the Director of National Intelligence, announced a multi-year research effort called the Space-based Machine Automated Recognition Technique (SMART) program.
SMART will automate broad-area search of multi-source satellite imagery to detect, monitor and characterize the progression of dynamic processes such as heavy construction or crop growth. By augmenting the manual imagery analysis process with global-scale image processing and machine learning, SMART will provide timely discovery and robust monitoring of man-made and natural change.
“Current manual exploitation methods do not scale well with the data volumes we’re receiving, and there’s the problem of simultaneously analyzing data from past, current and future space-based systems,” said IARPA Prog
