This collection on AFIT Scholar presents scholarly works of the faculty of the Air Force Institute of Technology


The Faculty Publications collection accepts scholarly works that are developed under the auspices of AFIT, and accepted for publication in a journal, or for presentation at a conference. All submissions should be approved for public release before submitting to AFIT Scholar

Secondary materials may be submitted along with an article or conference paper, for the purpose of experimental result repeatability.

To submit your work to AFIT Scholar, please click My Account, sign up if necessary, and once logged in, click submit research. For more information, please see the Policies for Faculty Publications, FAQ and Submission Guidelines.
