In this SBIR, AcuSoft will research and develop advanced, real-time PC Image Generation technology, as well as develop tools and integrate the required capabilities using PC image generators. The resultant products will provide to the DOD M&S communitythe advanced real-time image generation technology that will enable the use of lower-cost PC graphics in military virtual simulation. In our PHASE ...

A UNIQUE HIGH TEMPERATURE, HIGH PRESSURE GASEOUS PHOTOCHEMICAL REACTOR WITH OPTICAL AND MASS SPECTROMETRIC SPECIES DETECTION CAPABILITIES WILL BE DESIGNED. THE PROPOSED DESIGN, UTILIZING AEROCHEM'S EXPERIENCE IN CONSTRUCTING AND USING SIMILAR APPARATUS, WILL EXCEED THE UPPER TEMPERATURE AND PRESSURE SPECIFICATIONS GIVEN IN THE SOLICITATION IN ORDER TO GIVE THE INSTRUMENT GREATER UTILITY. ALTERNATE ...

ALTHOUGH THERE ARE NO INTRINSIC CONFLICTS FOR THE SAME MATERIAL SYSTEMS TO ACHIEVE BOTH THE RADAR ABSORPTION AND THERMAL SUPPRESSION CHARACTERISTICS THERE EXISTS NO COMMERCIAL PRODUCT THAT HAS THE DESIRED DUAL PROPERTIES. A THEORETICAL CALCULATION ON THE FEASIBILITY OF SEVERAL PROPOSED MATERIAL SYSTEMS WILL BE PERFORMED. THE CALCULATIONS ARE BASED ON A MEAN FIELD THEORY FOR DIELECTRIC PROPERTIES. ...

THE ABILITY TO MOVE C3 CAPABILITIES FORWARD (TOWARD THE SENSOR GROUPS) IN A DEFENSE SIGNAL AND IMAGE PROCESSING SYSTEM IS CRITICAL FOR TACTICAL AND LOGISTICAL REASONS. CURRENTLY, THE EXISTING TECHNOLOGY BASE IS INCAPABLE OF ACHIEVING THIS FUSION DUE TO SPEED, POWER, PACKAGING, AND POWER CONFLICTS. TO ACHIEVE A FRONT-END SIGNAL PROCESSING CAPABILITY, ATHENA PROPOSES TO EXPLOIT THE ADVANTAGEDS OF A ...

The utilization of Modeling and Simulation (M&S) technology to support the life cycle development, fielding, training and sustainment of military systems has demonstrated tremendous benefit as M&S applications have matured. The benefits ofinteroperability between M&S applications and Command and Control (C2) systems are becoming increasingly more evident as successful implementations are develope ...

The main objective of the Phase 1 of the present proposal will be demonstration of feasibility of multi-functional highly nonlinear materials for photonics and opto-electronics that possess high sensitivity and allow multiple control opportunities of theirresponses to electromagnetic influences (such as laser beams, electric and magnetic fields). As prime candidate for such materials we will stud ...

THE OBJECTIVE OF THE PROPOSED PROGRAM IS TO DESIGN AN IN-FLIGHT TRANSFER ALIGNMENT SCHEME FOR THE INERTIAL MEASUREMENT UNIT (IMU) OF A HELICOPTER-LAUNCHED INERTIALLY GUIDED MISSILE. THE MISSILE, MOUNTED ON A HELICOPTER WING, IS SUBJECTED TO LARGE AMPLITUDE VIBRATIONS. CURRENT TRANSFER ALIGNMENT SCHEMES, DESIGNED FOR AIRPLANES OR GROUND APPLICATIONS, DO NOT ESTIMATE THE VIBRATION COMPONENT OF THE I ...

THIS PROPOSAL IS TO APPLY COMPUTATIONAL FLUID DYNAMIC (CFD) SIMULATIONS TO DESIGN SLUGLESS HIGH VELOCITY PULSE SHAPED CHARGE WARHEADS FOR ARMOR PENETRATION. WE HVE DEVELOPED A NEW AND VERY NOVEL CODE ELPIC (EXTENDED LAGRANGIAN PARTICLE IN CELL CODE) WHICH OVERCOMES THE NORMALLY ENCOUNTERED DIFFICULTIES OF BOTH EULERIAN AND LAGRANGIAN CFD CODES FOR THESE PROBLEMS. USING THIS HIGHLY RELIABLE AND EFF ...
