The Underwater Ship Husbandry (USH) techniques and procedures currently in use by the Navy to provide Inspection/Repair/Maintenance (IRM) capabilities have greatly enhanced the readiness posture of the surface combatant and auxillary fleet. The utilization of fully engineered and documented… More

DDL OMNI Engineering proposes to design a secure system for the continuous, real time acoustic measurement of towed array position relative to the host submarine. By using focused transmit and receive assemblies, pseudo- random spread broadband signals, and relatively high carrier frequency, the… More

Not Available Single crystal piezoelectrics having strains > 1% (an order of magnitude greater than conventional ceramics) are proposed as the electroactive material for adaptive optics on the Next Generation Space Telescope (NGST). These single crystals have piezoele

An on-demand, automated readiness assessment product that objectively displays scored watch team performance across shipboard required combat systems mission areas while furnishing input to overall warfighting readiness assessment. Measurable criteriaestablished focusing on Ship and Commanding… More

BFTT compatible software design/ prototype system development demonstrating innovative SMRMS concept for low-impact, automated shipboard readiness assessment. Aegis combat systems (C/S) team readiness categorized by individual watch station tasks toassess specific performance within assessed… More

In this Phase I proposal DDL OMNI Engineering proposes to demonstrate the feasibility of an innovative composite Roll-On/Roll-Off (RO/RO) ramp concept that enables in-stream transfer of cargo from logistic supply ships to floating causeway RO/RO dischargefacility (RRDF) platforms during sea state 5… More

75673-The development of fusion power plants requires the design, development and qualification of structural materials for first wall/breeding blanket systems that can withstand long-term exposure to the hostile fusion environment. This environment includes high-energy neutrons, neutral and… More

In this Phase II proposal DDL OMNI Engineering proposes to demonstrate the feasibility of an innovative composite Roll-On/Roll-Off (RO/RO) ship ramp concept that enables in-stream transfer of cargo from logistic supply ships to RO/RO discharge facility (RRDF) platforms during sea state 5 conditions.… More

DDL OMNI proposes a ruggedized, portable, programmable device for the calibration of embedded sensor networks. Based entirely on Commercial-Off-The-Shelf (COTS) hardware and software, DDL OMNI proposes to instrument a system to quantifying the performance of sensors to NIST traceable standards. The… More

DDL Omni Engineering and the Klein Associates Division (KAD) of Applied Research Associates (ARA) have teamed to conduct research related to measuring the state of Shared Situational Awareness (SSA) during distributed near-real time military operations. Our scope will focus on the Anti Submarine… More

ABSTRACT: Remotely piloted aircraft (RPA) usage is proliferating at an unprecedented rate, making combat airspace increasingly more crowded (and dangerous) for manned aircraft. Familiarity with airspace control and deconfliction procedures varies greatly among RPA operators, while other… More

DDL OMNI Engineering and Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University will use our Salient Sentence Identification in Text (S2I2T) algorithm for the automated identification and characterization of the salient context related content in text documents. Our approach uniquely identifies… More
