New High-Speed Schlieren Imaging Capability
With our partners at Optical Diagnostic and Imaging Laboratory (ODIL), HVIL added Schlieren imaging capabilities for our ultra high speed camera. With this new capacity, HVIL is now better equipped to research and analyze hypervelocity shock events.
New Water Droplet Testing Capability
The HVIL team added new equipment for testing projectile interactions with weather events. This is just one more step in the longer journey of studying environmental repercussions on hypervelocity impacts.
