AIAA Aerospace Sciences Group TC Chair Presentation AIAA AVIATION 2014 Atlanta, GA June 2014

2 Overview Introductions Topics  AIAA  Technical Activities Committee (TAC)  Aerospace Sciences Group (ASG)  Technical Committee (TC) Questions & Comments

AIAA Topic: Conference Attendance U. S. Government attendance  Restrictions are still in place for government travel – Paperwork has grown  There have been two federal government efforts in relation to this restriction Memo from Frank Kendall  Under Secretary of Defense of AT&L  To all DoD Agencies in regard to technical conference attendance (see slide 4) General Accounting Office (GAO)  Engagement on Scientific Conferences  What effects, if any, has DOD’s policy for the oversight and approval of conference sponsoring and attendance had on the DOD science and technology enterprise? & Technical Conferences (see slide 5) 3

AIAA Topic: Conference Attendance/Budget FY13 6 NOTE: AIAA always starts the year out at zero and attempts to create a budget that gets us to zero at the end of the FY. The vast majority of our events occur in the summer, and that is where we make up much of the negative difference. Any money that is above the line goes into the portfolio. Any shortfall is made up by dollars that are in the portfolio. The FY12 shortfall that started in July was due to the beginning of the government travel restrictions. The Board authorized passage of an unbalanced budget with the intent that cuts would be made during FY13 to make up for the shortfall.

TAC Topic: What is the “Integration Layer” anyway? Content: Operational topics System integration Technical program management topics Cross-disciplinary topics Emerging Technologies Test, Verification, Reliability, Safety, Quality issues Policy and regulation topics Workforce and professional development issues Supply chain discussions Topics related to the intersection of government/industry/academia 14

TAC Topic: What is the Integration Tier anyway? Format  Not envisioned as traditional technical paper sessions but as sessions to allow dialogue and provide information that participants can apply at work  Includes various format types including but not limited to: –Panel discussions focused on lessons learned, best practices, and case studies –Tutorials, seminars, workshops –Joint sessions typical at current conferences when multiple committees have an interest in the same topic 15

TAC Topic: How to build a strong Integration Layer Must be a combination of member and staff efforts Technical Group Directors have the big picture about their areas and can help identify topics Program committees have insight into relevant topics in their area Corporate members have insight into industry issues Emerging Technology Committee can help identify new trends in technology Staff has insight into industry wide trends and movements Students/Professors have insight into academic/education topics 16

TAC Topic: Outcomes of a well executed Integration Layer Creation of new technical communities in AIAA Creation of new program communities in AIAA AIAA recognized as being on the forefront of industry issues AIAA provides valuable workforce/professional development information to members/attendees AIAA viewed as relevant- attracting more members We all go home from AIAA forums a bit more informed about a wider variety of topics 17

Reduction in number AIAA conference locations Fewer opportunities to train/expose TC members to conference planning & organization TC Chairs/Vice Chairs have been presented a new ASG Forum Chair rotation (upcoming slide) Work load has increased for January meeting  ASM is now SciTech  Includes “old” GNC Conference (GNC, MST, AFM) plus ASM conference The Defense Conference is still not developed due to Government reduction in travel. 18 TAC/ASG Topics: New Event Model (NEM)

19 ASG Topic: Conference Attendance Total = 2754 ASG = 1363

20 Proposed ASG Chair Rotation Assignment and Schedule for SciTech & AVIATION Note: The same person does not need to be a TCs appointee/volunteer for all 3 years of the cycle.

ASG Topic: ASG Technical Forum Chairs 21 G1 G2 G3 G1 ~741 papers G2 ~730 papers G3 ~340 papers

ASG Topic: Replacement of Scholar One Desired by ASG Director and many TCs  Will raise issue again at TAC meeting in August Scholar One issues  Difficulty in use  Poor Information Assurance (IA) implementation Need working group to find viable replacement  My suggestions for group  AIAA Staff (Ann Ames, Carmela Brittingham)  Recent ASG Technical Forum Chairs (Rob Vermeland, Robbie Robertson, Brett Ridgley, Andy Broeren, other Forum Chairs from ASD, SPACE, P&E)  Recent Discipline Chairs (TCs with large number of sessions)  Need representative from Journals (AIAA, Thermophysics & Heat Transfer) 22

TC Topic: Health Assessment How healthy is your TC? TC/PC Self Assessment  otFolder=%2fSC%2fTAC%2fShared%20Documents%2fTAC%20Forms&Folde rCTID=&View=%7bB2E73755%2d3750%2d4BDB%2d8012%2d454F218450F8 %7d otFolder=%2fSC%2fTAC%2fShared%20Documents%2fTAC%20Forms&Folde rCTID=&View=%7bB2E73755%2d3750%2d4BDB%2d8012%2d454F218450F8 %7d  Search for the file “TAC_F_Committee Self Assessment_V02” Major items  Does your TC have a Charter?  Does your TC have a written manual or reference document?  A written process is needed if you select an award (e.g. best student paper, Aerodynamics or Thermophysics award).  How do members and others know what your TC is doing? Web Pages  Good improvement  Keep up the good work 23

TC Topic: General Reminders Chair-Elect  For new chairs, TCs need to select a vice-chair in a timely fashion  There are two accepted practices for chair-elect timelines (see TAC_P_Chairs Manual_V01)  TC Chair position is for 2 years Member Responsibilities  Maintain current AIAA Membership (must be an AIAA member)  Recruit new TC members  Submit names for AIAA awards  Submit names for AIAA elected offices  Propose membership upgrades  Propose session papers for AIAA journals 24

TC Topic: General Reminders Technical Committee size  Maximum of 50 members  35 US Members  International members  Associate members 34 years old or younger (non-voting)  Alumni members (non-voting)  Must get approval of ASG Director or Dep. Director to extend TC member beyond 3 year term  Cost to AIAA when TC meeting attendance goes up – Dinner cost – Audio Visual (AV) and speaker system – Reason for limitation on number of “visitors” to TC meetings.  Number of dinners per year is still limited 25

26 ASG Topic: TC Funds No TAC Group Directors given annual funding for FY14  Hopefully will be restored in FY15  AIAA finances are problematic after last FY
