In dense urban environments and on the battlefield, our Warfighters must be prepared to face numerous threats, including toxic industrial chemicals, which can significantly hinder military operations.

To help the Army bolster its force protection measures, computational chemistry experts from the U.S. Army Engineer Research and Development Center (ERDC) are applying groundbreaking methods to help predict chemical threats before they impact mission success.

Watch to learn more about how this team transforms physical principles into algorithmic models that can predict the behavior of chemicals and materials.
