A RESEARCH PROJECT TO DETERMINE THE FEASIBILITY OF DEVELOPING A SUBMARINE SEA ENVIRONMENT SENSOR (WAVE HEIGHT, SEA STATE), AND RELATIVE SPEED ACROSS AND DECK UTILIZING MICRO-CELL STRAIN SENSORS AND FIBER OPTIC DATA TRANSMISSION SYSTEMS.

N/A

DESIGN AND DEVELOPMENT OF A PROTOTYPE DURABLE, STABLE, ANTIREFLECTION COATING WITH EXTENDED WAVELENGTH CHARACTERISTICS, LOW ABSORPTION, AND HIGH TRANSMISSION, SUITABLE FOR EXTERNAL WINDOWS AND INTERNAL OPTICAL ELEMENTS OF STAR SENSOR AND OTHER WIDEBAND SYSTEMS.

DEVELOPMENT OF A DURABLE, ENVIRONMENTALLY STABLE , LOW-STRESS ANTIREFLECTION COATING FOR MULTI-SPECTRAL SYSTEMS.

THIS PROJECT INVOLVES A NEW APPROACH FOR A LOW POWER FOURIER TRANSFORM PROCESSOR. AN ALGORITHM WHICH REQUIRES NO MULTIPLICATIONS IN THE FOURIER TRANSFORMATION HAS BEEN DEVELOPED. IT IS TO BE IMPLEMENTED AND TESTED IN THIS PROGRAM. THE ALGORITHM IS WELL SUITED FOR REAL-TIME SPECTRAL ANALYSIS AT FREQUENCIES OF INTEREST IN THE 0 TO 10 HZ RANGE REQUIRED FOR PROCESSING MAGNEMOMETER DATA. THE WORK ALSO ...

THE HUMAN AS A SYSTEM COMPONENT IS MOST LIKELY TO FAIL UNDER HIGH WORKLOAD WHICH OFTEN IS THE TIME THAT FAILURE ISJ MOST CATASTROPHIC FOR THE ENTIRE SYSTEM. THE PROPOSED RESEARCH ATTEMPTS TO EXPAND OUR THEORETICAL UNDERSTANDING OF HUMAN INFORMATION PROCESSING WITH PARTICULAR REFERENCE TO MODELS OF ATTENTION AND HIGH WORKLOAD. BIOCYBERNETIC MEASURE (P300 AND HEART RATE) ARE USED TO PROVIDE CONVERGI ...

THE EVOLUTION OF PERSONAL MICRO COMPUTERS INTO FULL FUNCTION PROFESSIONAL WORKSTATIONS OPENS NEW OPPORTUNITIES FOR IMPROVING THE DESIGN, ENGINEERING AND MANUFACTURING PRODUCTIVITY OF POTENTIAL USERS WHO CANNOT AFFORD THE HIGH COST OF PRESENT DAY COMPUTER AIDED ENGINEERING (CAE) AND RELATED SYSTEMS. THE CONTINUED DEVELOPMENT OF LOW COST MICROPROCESSORS PROMISES TO REMOVE THE CURRENT PRICE BARRIER O ...

THE DATA OBTAINED FROM MEASUREMENT OF RADON PROGENY AT REMOTE LOCATIONS AND VARYING ALTITUDES YIELDS VALUABLE INFORMATION ON GEOLOGIC PHENOMENA AND CONDITIONS, AND ON GLOBAL BIO-GEOCHEMICAL TRANSPORT MECHANISMS. THE SURFACE GENERATION OF RADON, AND ITS SHORT HALF-LIFE PERMITS EVALUATION OF AIR MASS MOVEMENT. THIS IS OF PARTICULAR VALUE IF MEASURED ON A NEAR REAL-TIME BASIS. A REAL TIME AIR SAMPLER ...
