Luisa Wong, a computer science engineer by training who has worked for U.S. Army Tropic Regions Test Center for more than 25 years, has achieved notoriety in the test world for her expertise in exposure testing. TRTC maintains ‘coupons’ of wood and metal samples on exposure racks in a variety of tropical microclimates in multiple countries, carefully assessing how they fare in the extreme elements. They also can subject larger pieces of equipment to the same evaluations, from tents to military vehicles.
“Exposure testing is very interesting here because we have aggressive climates: marine sites, jungle sites,” said Wong. “It is a good opportunity for customers because they can see the effects of climate on their items five to ten times faster than in other places in the world.”
