We propose to develop a computer based system for the online analysis of bio-behavioral signals associated with momentary loss of alertness. We will continue our development of bio-behavioral measures indicative of lapses in alertness. Our system will use only measures that can be obtained without attaching sensors to the operator. We will concentrate on monitoring the oculomotor system using came ...

This work will use numerical methods to determine optimal design parameters for a compact hybrid fuel cell power system driven by a statistically determined load profile. Detailed physics-based models will be used to represent the behavior of the components in the hybrid system. The components considered in the hybrid system for Phase I will be a PEM fuel cell, Li-ion batteries and electrochemical ...

GaN-based electronic and optoelectronic devices have demonstrated superior properties for applications involving visible and ultraviolet light emitting diodes (LEDs), laser diodes, and high-power electronic devices. Despite the significant improvement in the performance of these devices, they still suffer from strong built-in electrostatic field due to spontaneous and piezoelectric polarizations, ...
