Shock Thermodynamic Applied Research Facility (STAR)

The STAR facility provides a full range of pressure (bars to multi-Mbar) for material property study utilizing gas/propellant launchers, ramp-loading pulsers, and ballistic applications.

Thermal Spray Lab (TSL)

TSL capabilities include traditional thermal spray processes, cold spray, and controlled atmosphere plasma spray, process diagnostics, process modeling, and advanced process control.

Thermal Test Complex (TTC)

The TTC is used to study quiescent, large-scale combustion events, as well as to assess the effect of wind driven fires. Fires include hydrocarbon liquid, combustible solids, and propellant fires.

U.S. High Arctic Research Center (USHARC)

Sandia and the University of Alaska Fairbanks have teamed up to advance the concept of a permanent, comprehensive multi-agency USHARC in the Prudhoe Bay area.

Utqiagvik Arctic Research Facility

The Utqiagvik facility supports instrumentation built specifically for the Arctic to obtain continuous measurements of clouds, aerosols, precipitation, energy, and other meteorological variables.

The Utqiagvik Artic Facility located in Barrow, Alaska.

Waste Isolation Pilot Plant (WIPP)

WIPP is a deep geologic repository for permanent disposal of a specific type of waste that is the byproduct of the Nation's Nuclear Defense Program.
