  • From Apollo to Artemis: ERDC’s enduring role in space exploration

    It has been more than 50 years since Neil Armstrong famously declared, “That’s one small step for man, one giant leap for mankind,” as he became the first man to step onto the surface of the Moon. Since then, the U.S. Army Engineer Research and Development Center (ERDC) has helped enable the next generation of space exploration.

  • ERDC Advances Joint Port Damage Recovery Capabilities Through Tri-Service Training

    The U.S. Army Engineer Research and Development Center (ERDC) is strengthening expeditionary logistics capabilities through the development and deployment of innovative Port Damage Recovery (PDR) kits, designed to rapidly restore damaged maritime infrastructure in contested environments.

  • Advanced Scour Collaboration Ensures Critical Infrastructure Stability

    Collaboration between the U.S. Army Engineer Research and Development Center (ERDC) and the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) New Orleans District is a critical step in ensuring the stability of vital infrastructure. ERDC is assisting the district in inspecting the dewatered bays for voids beneath the Old River Low Sill Structure, located about 25 miles south of Vidalia, Louisiana, as part of the Old River Control Complex.

  • ERDC and USACE New York District partner on New York Harbor field testing

    Four U.S. Army Engineer Research and Development Center (ERDC) laboratories, along with the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers New York District (NAN), recently joined forces to conduct a series of anchor penetration-depth field tests at Stapleton Anchorage in the New York Harbor.

  • ERDC and NATO experiment advances engineer survivability

    The U.S. Army Engineer Research and Development Center (ERDC), along with the NATO Military Engineering Working Group’s Camouflage, Concealment, Deception, and Obscuration Team of Experts, recently conducted an experiment in support of “surviving the gap” during wet gap crossing exercises in Frecatei, Romania.

  • Four ERDC researchers earn DoD SMART awards

    Four researchers in two laboratories at ERDC were recently awarded the 2024 Department of Defense (DoD) Science, Mathematics, and Research for Transformation (SMART) Scholar & Mentor of the Year Awards. The recipients are scholar Dr. Andrew Groeneveld and mentor Dr. Michael “Wes” Trim, both with the Geotechnical and Structures Laboratory (GSL), and scholar Dr. Andrew Jin and mentor Dr. Igor Linkov, both with the Environmental Laboratory (EL).

  • ERDC’s SUBMAT enables successful beach landings during JLOTS25

    A team from the U.S. Army Engineer Research and Development Center (ERDC) rolled out an innovation designed to solve a tough expeditionary logistics challenge—getting heavy military vehicles from ship to shore without getting stuck. Armed with expertise and a groundbreaking technology called Submersible Matting (SUBMAT), ERDC researchers played a critical role in supporting beach landing operations during Joint Logistics Over-the-Shore operation (JLOTS 25), part of this year’s Balikatan, an annual exercise with the U.S. and Philippine military.

  • ERDC robotics team advances future of combat engineering at PC-C5

    A team from the U.S. Army Engineer Research and Development Center (ERDC) recently played a key role in a major Army exercise called Project Convergence Capstone 5 (PC-C5). During this event, ERDC’s Robotics for Engineer Operations (REO) put their robotic technologies to the test in realistic, hands-on scenarios that simulate combat situations, showing how systems perform and hold up under pressure, making an important contribution to Army readiness.

  • Playing defense: ERDC innovations safeguard Super Bowl LIX

    In partnership with the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Science and Technology Directorate (S&T), the DHS Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA), the National Football League (NFL), and local, state and federal law enforcement, ERDC deployed two patented technologies at Super Bowl LIX designed to safeguard against potential vehicular and explosive attacks.

  • ERDC’s biopolymer research group conducts overtopping field study

    The U.S. Army Engineer Research and Development Center (ERDC) is going “over the top” to solve challenges with innovative experiments. Recently, ERDC’s biopolymer research group conducted an overtopping field study of one of their experimental embankments.
