Summary
The JESTR Slipper Wear Tribology opportunity is a sources sought notice issued by the Air Force, aimed at gathering information from potential contractors who can develop a validated model for predicting slipper wear during sled testing at high speeds. This project is critical for enhancing the performance of sleds used in testing, as excessive slipper wear can lead to structural failures and safety concerns. Contractors with expertise in engineering services, particularly those experienced in tribology and wear prediction modeling, are encouraged to respond. The government seeks to understand the capabilities of vendors to provide the necessary labor, materials, and facilities to create a physics-based model and associated software for wear reduction techniques and materials.
