This project will result in the creation of multiple Technical Data Packages (TDP) and Source Approval Requests (SAR) as well as supporting CEPEDA’s acquisition of all of McNab’s Navy products.  Successful completion will qualify CEPEDA Associates as an approved vendor for these items that have been orphaned as a result of McNab's dissolution.  CEPEDA is a qualified Navy vendor for critical ...

This project will develop an augmented reality application to generate personalized formative assessment feedback as students interact with physical objects related to STEM (science, technology, engineering, and math) concepts, such as recognizing the shape of an atom. The prototype will be designed as a multi-sensory tool to support students with visual challenges. At the end of Phase I, in a res ...

A prototyping effort is being proposed to develop methods and tools for utilizing structures of opportunity as efficient radiations in the HF, VHF and UHF bands.

There is limited domestic production of nickel superalloys, used in propulsion, turbines, heat exchangers, exposing the military to risk of overdependence on foreign sources. End-of-life parts and shop scrap represent an untapped source of superalloys that can serve as a domestic supply, provided they can be converted into material with properties meeting specs for original parts manufacturing. Th ...

Part Number: 525133-1 Utilizing 5-axis mill and dovetail fixturing, mill housing (item 1). On vertical mill create installation tool (525134). Working with specialty glass house, develop 525132 (quartz window) holding flatness of 3 wavelengths per inch and parallel to 3 archmin. Develop application (with same specialty glass house) of ¼ wave magnesium fluoride applied to both surface B and opposi ...

Metamagnetics proposes to develop prototype bolt-on Auto-tune Filter (AtF) modules that reject strong signals at two tactically-relevant frequency bands.

Per- and Polyfluoroalkyl Substances (PF AS) have been widely used in everyday consumer products. Landfills are the final repository for the PF AS-containing products and wastes, and consequently, one of the major sources of PF AS to the environment. Elevated concentrations of PFAS in leachate have raised concerns regarding disposal of leachate. Yet, cost-effective treatment technologies for PF AS ...

Antibiotic resistant bacteria have become a major concern in discharges from hospitals, wastewater treatment plants, and agricultural runoff. A quick, inexpensive, field- deployable method of detecting antibiotic resistant bacteria in these waters is desirable. Antibiotic resistant bacteria of concern include Salmonella, Staphylococci, E. coli, Enterococci, and coliform bacteria, among others. A p ...

We propose an ethylene-oxide monitor with ultra-low limit of detection based on sensitive and selective optical measurement technology.Due to recently lowered exposure limits for ethylene oxide (EtO) in ambient air to 1 1 parts per trillion (long-term,1 0-4 risk level) monitoring EtO will require advanced technology. Current methods require sample trapping and preconcentration to achieve an accept ...

Systems & Technology Research (STR) proposes to design a nanosatellite payload in support of Warfighter ISR via Distributed Satellites (WISRDS), a radio frequency (RF) signals intelligence (SIGINT) solution to rapidly provide actionable information to special operations forces in the tactical theater from satellites in low Earth orbit. The payload consists of a wideband, tunable, miniature antenna ...
