The U.S. Army has a future need for multiple secondary high explosive compositions that can also be used interchangeably as rocket propellants. In this proposal we will discuss a method of preparing such compositions via advanced spray drying technology and involving the use of a highly insensitive spray dried nitramine or CL-20 composition which have been plasticized with an energetic polymer t ...

Modern deep learning-based face recognition systems perform at or above human levels on high quality frontal imagery, but their performance suffers significantly on more operationally relevant imagery with confounding factors such as extreme pose.  This performance degradation is based on two primary shortcomings: poor match between training and test-time image data, and failure to model inherent ...

Resodyn has developed the novel Resonant Acoustic Continuous Crystallizer (RACC) concept which is specifically configured for the recrystallization of energetic nitramines. This technology employs the Resonant Acoustic Mixing technology, which results in a uniform shear field throughout the mixing vessel. Radial mixing is accomplished to such a significant degree that true plug flow is achieved. C ...

The overall goal of this SBIR program is to develop waveguide-based, robust, high-rate, entangled photon pair sources suitable for use in space. These waveguides, fabricated at AdvR utilize periodic poling for efficient quasi-phase matched (QPM) spontaneous parametric downconversion (SPDC) of high energy pump photons into two lower energy signal and idler photons. AdvR’s approach is enabled by a ...

Pacific Engineering, Incorporated, (PEI), recipient of the 2014 Tibbets Award as one of the best in Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) and 2019 Best of Lincoln NE – Design Engineers Award, is proposing to develop a Composite Expandable Shelter in compliance with  Army Standard Family International Standardization Organization (ASF ISO). This Composite Expandable Shelter will meet the Arm ...

Particle agglomeration is a severe impediment to dissemination of fine powders used as an obscurant for both military and law enforcement purposes. Agglomeration increases rate of particle settling and decreases screening ability of the obscurant within certain regions of the electromagnetic spectrum. It is therefore desirable to develop technology that reduces agglomeration of these powders durin ...

Advanced numerical simulations of fluid flow and solid/structural mechanics are often used to assess the vehicle or engine performance, to identify the mechanical factors that contribute to the shortening of their life span, and to suggest design modifications that improve efficiency and durability. The latter often results in significant cost savings to the DoD. As the vehicle and engine designs ...

Attollo’s concept is to utilize our Scene Generator Technology, to develop a 3D interactive and collaborative sand table/mapping tool for use on a portable mission planning/briefing device; this device can be easily deployable. The tool provides a volumetric virtual map that is shareable and follows Army planning protocol and doctrine. Additionally, an overlaid task bar can display specifically ...

The U.S. Army is interested in the development of innovative materials, films, coatings and technologies or manufacturing techniques which allow current U.S. Army airdrop related hardware and equipment to survive fresh and salt water operations with increased reliability and without damage and significant maintenance impact. Resodyn Corporation proposes for development a durable, moisture-impermea ...
