The Flight Dynamics and Control program is part of the Office of Naval Research's Naval Air Warfare and Weapons Department.

The goal of the surface ship hydrodynamics and dynamics research area is to develop increased understanding and predictive simulation capabilities of nonlinear interaction of surface ship and ocean environment, free surface turbulence, surface ship dynamics, and hydrodynamic loads in relevant operation environment.

The Office of Naval Research's Marine Meteorology and Space program sponsors innovative basic and applied research in the broad thrust areas of atmospheric prediction and processes, atmospheric effects, air-sea interaction, atmospheric boundary layer processes, satellite remote sensing, and ionospheric analysis and prediction.

The results are in for the recent Naval Horizons student essay contest, organized by the Naval STEM Coordination Office, which is located at the Office of Naval Research.

The Office of Naval Research's Electronic Warfare (EW) and Command, Control, Computers and Communication (C4) program is focused in the area of expeditionary, irregular and complex hybrid warfare.

The Directed Energy Weapons (DEW) Program is part of the Office of Naval Research's Naval Air Warfare and Weapons Department.

The Sea Cadets—members of a maritime-based program established by the Navy League of the United States to create a favorable image of the Navy on the part of American youth—were getting ready for a robotics competition they would hold at the next day’s Navy League STEM Expo.

Naval assets, large and small, spend months to years at sea exposed to considerable biofouling pressures. The Office of Naval Research's Biofouling Control program sponsors research to develop antifouling/fouling release coatings and the mechanics underlying such materials.

Assessing surf zone conditions has never been an exact science for the Department of the Navy. That’s about to change thanks to a recent request to TechSolutions, which has resulted in new surf observation (SUROB) technology to make operational forecasts more precise. For the past six months, a team of scientists and engineers from the Naval Research Lab (NRL) and the U.S. Army’s Engineering Research and Development Center (ERDC) have been developing the technological tools needed to create a more precise surf observation report. In order to gain greater insight into how the surf observation tool may improve warfighter operations, NavalX recently organized a workshop that brought together the science and engineering developers with the Sailors and Marines who would use it. TechSolutions received the request less than a year ago for a technology-driven solution for surf observation from Maj. Zachary Taylor, a technology officer with the Marines’ Warfighting Lab. Within weeks, TechSolutions began working with the development team at NRL and ERDC to come up with a prototype.

Chief of Naval Research Rear Adm. Lorin Selby gave remarks as the keynote speaker during an Aug. 23 Special Topic Breakfast hosted by the Navy League of the United States. The Navy League is an educational and advocacy organization supporting U.S. sea services: the Navy, Marine Corps, Coast Guard and Merchant Marine.
