Hazard assessment tools that model the transport and dispersion of Chemical, Biological, Radiological, Nuclear and Explosive (CBRNE) materials through urban areas are only as good as the 3D models that inform the physics model. Maintaining accurate, up-to-date 3D models of urban areas is challenging. Even in the commercial world, urban construction and demolition may result in the models created a ...

Phase II will utilize knowledge gained from phase I work to develop and execute a manufacturing process suitable for producing quantities of 3-D printed discrete circuits for radiation detection systems.  The goal is to support mobile radiation detection system requirements for high voltage, analog amplification, and MCA functionality to produce differential pulse height spectra in time sequence. ...

Assays for accurate diagnosis of early stages of infection with biothreat agents, on the day of infection or within a few days of infection, will find wide use in both civilian and military applications These diagnostic assays, which are anticipated to be highly specific and sensitive, will add to the repertoire of tools of hospitals and clinics that serve our armed forces personnel deployed on th ...

This Air Force Phase II STTR program would develop low-cost semiconductor nanomembrane (NM) based high frequency pressure sensors, using SOI (Silicon on Insulator) NM techniques in combination with our nanocomposite materials. Such low-modulus, conformal nanomembrane sensor skins with integrated interconnect elements and electronic devices can be applied to new or existing wind tunnel models for f ...

This DOD Phase II STTR program would develop self-calibrating, conformal nanomembrane based pressure sensors for embedded sensing applications, using silicon on insulator techniques in combination with our pioneering nanocomposite materials. Such low-modulus, conformal nanomembrane sensor skins with integrated self-calibration, interconnect elements and electronic devices can be applied to new or ...

Securing our nations weapon systems is essential to the success of our military.  In recent years, cyber securing these systems has become a dire need and priority for the Department of Defense (DoD).  The main objective for Knowledge Based Systems, Inc. (KBSI) for this project is to develop the Cyber Knowledge Management with Secure Information Transfer for Weapons Systems (CKURITY) system to e ...

The proposed R&D program is directed towards the commercialization of a new class of two-dimensional (2D) inorganic nanosheets, known as MXenes. Commercialization of these materials is a priority for maintaining the superiority of US military technology in application areas such as: field effect transistors, energy storage devices, shielding from electromagnetic interference, high performance comp ...

This is an augmentation of a robotic installation Robin AFB GXMG has been using for over a decade. Each C-130 prop that needs grinding for remanufacture will no longer be treated exactly the same (since they are not). 3D sensing will adapt a grinding process to the exact blade geometry. Furthermore, if a prop need to be processed further (to remove pitting or scratches), the system will target onl ...

The United States Air Force (USAF) has a long history of using human performance models to increase the effectiveness of training, and predict the impact of physical factors (like fatigue) and environmental factors (like time pressures and information uncertainty). Within Phase I, Sonalysts and Miami University worked to improve the quality of these models through the development of the EEG Modeli ...

ABSTRACT: The Sonalysts Team proposes to develop a solution to establish secure cross enclave network interfaces that facilitate the flow of data between different levels of classification while improving and ensuring both security and data integrity. We will develop a prototype software application that will complement Cross-Domain Solution (CDS) installations by standardizing configuration and ...
