While thorough assessment of concrete chemistry is vital to evaluating the health of (transportation) infrastructure systems, the costly and time-consuming nature of available chemical analysis methods limit their applications. A nondestructive test method will be developed for thorough evaluation of concrete chemistry and deterioration conditions at different depths. An analytical chemistry metho ...

EMAG Technologies, Inc. (Ann Arbor, MI) is responding to a US Special Operations Command solicitation for a Wideband Global SATCOM (WGS) certified Ka-Band antenna. The solicitation requests the development and integration of a WGS-certified, low-visibility, small-form-factor commercial and military capable Ka-band spread spectrum antenna (KSSA) including the software for the modem to support Ka Sp ...

"SSSC is pleased to propose the development and delivery of a Hostile Fire Indication Sensor (HFIS) based on the Phase I design concept. The resulting system will limit the number of circuit card assemblies to two: one for the short wave infrared (SWIR)

Various methods for increasing seat belt usage have been investigated over the last several years including visual and audible warnings currently installed in today’s vehicles. In spite of these attempts, FMCSA research has shown that drivers of about 59% of commercial motor vehicles (those weighing 10,000 pounds or more that operate in interstate commerce) buckle their safety belts as compared ...

Solid State Scientific Corporation (SSSC) is pleased to propose the design of a single-board, integrated Hostile Fire Indication (HFI) system with the nominal size, weight, and power constraints for operation as an adjunct sensor within the AN/AVR-2B(V) Laser Warning Set. Work on Phase I will consist of the preliminary design of a single circuit board that includes an uncooled, Commercial Off-The ...

Special Warfare Combat Swimmers operate in a hostile environment characterized by excessive physiologic demands and complete reliance on their equipment. Diver safety and situational awareness can be greatly improved by an integrated system capable of monitoring both diver physiologic status and breathing apparatus operation. During the course of this project Creare will develop an Integrated Di ...

Air-launched, small unmanned aerial systems (SUAS) offer the potential for a tremendous increase in airborne sensing and ground support capability. However, breakthrough power technology is needed to enable these systems to reach their potential. We propose to develop a power system designed to meet the extremely challenging performance, operational, and environmental requirements for service on ...

RECENT BREAK THROUGHS IN THE DEVELOPMENT OF (LOW COST LIGHT -WEIGHT) HONECOMB ENERGY ABSORBERS FOR AUTOMOTIVE BUMPER SYSTEMS NOW MAKE IT POSSIBLE TO DESIGN A COST-EFFECTIVE LOW PEAK FORCE BUMPER SYSTEM WHICH CAN BE DESIGNED TO TRANSMIT AN EXTREMELY LOW SHOCK LEVEL TO VEHICLE OCCUPANTS. ONE OF CAC'S CONCEPTS IS TO DESIGN A BUMPER SYSTEM CONPOSED OF A FRONT FACE MOUNTED (EVA) HONEYCOMB ABSORBER COVE ...
