ISTD’s Systems Engineering Branch supports modeling and simulation for projects leading to prototyping efforts. The key focus areas are: 1) integration of hardware, software, and electrical systems into functioning prototype systems; 2) modeling and simulation of complex systems including but not limited to transportation, electro-mechanical, and bench to pilot-scale prototypes; 3) fluid dynamics modeling; 4) treatment technologies for water, air, and solid waste, and 5) experiment design and execution.
