Things to Do When You’re a Teleworking Aerospace Engineer or Aerospace Engineering Student
Many aerospace organizations are having their employees work from home to mitigate exposure to the coronavirus and keep communities, especially the most vulnerable members, safe and healthy. AIAA applauds and supports this decision.
We encourage everyone to follow the coronavirus safety guidelines set out by the WHO and CDC.
We understand you still have work to do and may be looking for new ways to connect while you telecommute. We can help.

Lockheed Martin Digital Twin Maturity Model
Lockheed Martin Digital Twin Overview
This AIAA Aerospace Perspectives Series webinar is hosted by AIAA and presented by Lockheed Martin.
Digital Twins have captured our collective imagination for years, representing the ultimate tool for understanding and optimizing design, manufacturing, and sustainment of complex systems. But how can it bring value to the Aerospace and Defense industry? Join us online as AIAA and Lockheed Martin bring together a panel of experts to explore this topic and talk though the value of this complex technology. In an unclassified 60-minute webinar, learn more about the capability and how – through interoperability and applying digital twin technology across the product life cycle – we can visualize our industry and the world like never before. :
- Discussion from industry, government and academia around cutting-edge successes and industry-wide challenges with digital twin
- Integration of digital engineering, complete digital thread and digital twins to complement all stages of the product life cycle – for both new and legacy programs
- Importance of digital twin interoperability across organizations – Partnership with the customer and supply chain to transform how we acquire, develop and maintain products faster – and more effectively – than ever before
- Evolution of the Lockheed Martin Digital Twin Maturity Model and what that means for early concept models through sustainment
This event is open to the public and free of charge.
Speakers
Ron Thompson, Agency Chief Data Officer (CDO) and Deputy Digital Transformation Officer (DDTO), NASA
Christopher A. Garrett, Senior Level Executive, Technical Advisor, Systems Engineering, Air Force Life Cycle Management Center
Michael Grieves, Chief Scientist of Advanced Manufacturing, Executive Vice President of Operations, and interim Chief Financial Officer, Florida Institute of Technology
