(a) Title
Analytical, Experimental and Numerical Investigations of Advanced Weapon Technologies.
(b) Description of Work
Thepurpose of this contract is to provide Defence Research and Development Canada - Valcartier Research Centre, Precision Weapons, Weapons Effects and Protection and Energetic Materials sections with specialized technical support in areas of propulsion, structure, signature, and ballistic effects for precision weapons. The Work to be performed will provide literature reviews, analytical development, numerical modeling, experimentation and data analysis, system design as well as design, installation and commissioning of local experimental facilities. The services will be provided on an ?as-and-when-requested? basis. The nature of the services required will cover applied research program tasks and direct Canadian Forces (CF) support tasks.
