The Office of Naval Research's International Collaborative Development for Enhanced Maritime Domain Awareness was one of 14 projects selected by the Office of the Under Secretary of Defense for Acquisition, Technology and Logistics to receive $1 million awards beginning this fall through the Coalition Warfare Program.

New hull coatings being developed by the Office of Naval Research (ONR) are showing promise in reducing the build-up of marine crustaceans – namely barnacles – on ships´ hulls, optimizing vessel performance and dramatically reducing fuel costs.

ONR is joining the Bureau of Reclamation and U.S. Army Corps of Engineers to explore noise controls at the nation's hydroelectric power plants.

Winners of ONR's STEM Grand Challenge will produce intelligent tutoring technology that will be used to enhance the STEM skills of students, Sailors and Marines.

Have a hankering to chill your Cherry Garcia™ and to listen to Jerry Garcia using the same system? The concept may not be too far off. The Office of Naval Research has long funded researchers at Penn State who now have proved they can build a compact freezer case substituting sound waves for...

For centuries, schoolchildren have recited the tale of the demise of England's King Henry I, a cruel medieval monarch (blinded one kinsman, imprisoned another for 28 years) who died in a wretched state (so we're told) after dining on "…a surfeit of eels of which he was inordinately fond" thus...

The International Cooperative Engagement Program for Polar Research (ICE-PPR) International Workshop for Sea Ice and Icebergs was held recently at the U.S. Naval Academy in Annapolis, Maryland. The workshop attendees focused on three areas: science and technology researchers who study data and create new algorithms or sensors; the centers that produce ice analysis products for mariners; and the operators themselves, personnel from the U.S. and Canadian Navies and Coast Guards who have operated ships in polar regions.

Technology developed for tactical generators under an Office of Naval Research (ONR) program recently demonstrated the ability to cut fuel use nearly in half compared to diesel systems currently powering forward-operating bases.
