Materiel

Materiel

Materiel refers to equipment, apparatus, or supplies that can be used for administrative or combat purposes. In the context of a capital project, materiel management involves ensuring the visibility and traceability of every physical item purchased during development for the purpose of fabricating, constructing, installing, and operating the future asset.From: Handbook of Systems Engineering and Risk Management in Control Systems, Communication, Space Technology, Missile, Security and Defense Operations [2023], The Binary Firm [2020]

The alternative system review (ASR) is created to support communication between the end user and acquisition community and leads to a draft performance specification for the preferred materiel solution. It usually occurs during the MSA phase, after completion of the AoA and before Milestone A. Table 2.38 describes the suggested ASR artifacts and review criteria. Hence, the review should not begin until these criteria are achieved. ASR is a best practice review.

Following a laminate design, the FGP-MEE hemispherical shell is made up of three layers: the first and third are formed of MEE materiel (BF50%), while the middle layer is a porous FGM (Al/ZnO2). B labels for Barium Titanate BaTiO3 and F labels for Cobalt Ferrite CoFe2O4. For convenience of reference, denotes MEE composite obtained through the dispersion of volume fraction of fibrous piezoelectric phase of BaTiO3 in a magnetostrictive matrix of CoFe2O4. Material parameters of the MEE composite and FGM are given in Tables 2 and 5. The FGP layer has a thickness of h = 0.04m, whereas the MEE layer has a thickness of 0.2x h.
