2013-06-05 Automotive Research Center 19th Annual Program Review
June 5 & 6, 2013
The Automotive Research Center is a U.S. Army Center of Excellence for the modeling and simulation of ground vehicles, led by the University of Michigan. We focus on basic scientific problems associated with management of power and energy within vehicles, mobility and survivability of the complete vehicle system, including the human operator.
Each year, we bring together members of the automotive research community from across academia, government and industry to share our latest research developments. It is an opportunity to discuss Army-relevant efforts, and to leverage and transfer our efforts to industry.
The event is open to all and is free of charge. We cordially invite you to join our community of dedicated researchers at this event. Registration is necessary for attendance.
