The Applied Vehicle Technology Panel strives to improve the performance, affordability, and safety of vehicles through advancement of appropriate technologies. The Panel addresses Mechanical Systems, Structures and Materials, Propulsion and Power Systems operating in all environments (land, sea, air, and space), for both new and ageing systems.

To accomplish this mission the members of the AVT community exploit their joint expertise in the fields of:

• Mechanical systems, structures and materials
• Propulsion and power systems
• Performance, stability and control, fluid physics.
