A NPS doctoral student has been recognized for his groundbreaking research on quantum sensing, aiming to detect minuscule changes in mass from afar. The project involves building an atomic fountain, which will enable sensitivity to gravity nine decimal places of precision.
Wei Kang, a Naval Postgraduate School professor in Applied Mathematics, was honored as a 2025 SIAM Fellow for his contributions to dynamic systems and controls. He is recognized for his work on analyzing, controlling, and estimating nonlinear dynamical systems and their applications.
The DOD has awarded NPS a $2.4 million grant to develop new theory and tools for understanding and preparing for future climate events that pose challenges to military operations. The project aims to advance resilience research and build tools for assessing and improving resilience across military installations.
The NPS conducted a concept generation workshop to explore ways to augment the nation's resilience and ability to prepare for war. Participants presented nearly 30 conceptual solutions, including ideas on forward base defense, autonomous logistics systems, and artificial intelligence applications.
Naval Postgraduate School professor Moshe Kress' article reviews quantitative approaches to modeling military operations and threat situations. The piece discusses historical, classical, present, and future conflict models, including dynamics of today's insurgencies.
