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. ...

Investments by the Department of Defense (DOD) have led to the development and demonstration of electronic textiles capable of transforming traditional textile systems into wearable power and data systems. The Defense Health Agency (DHA) has identified an opportunity to leverage advancements in smart garment systems for military personnel to aid in the prediction in performance declines and healt ...

The Defense Health Program seeks to improve the lives of service members suffering below knee amputations through the development of a non-powered lower extremity prosthesis designed to restore range of motion and power generation to that of an uninjured anatomical ankle. Current passive systems are still in early stages of development and typically only address one aspect of what the Defense Heal ...

At the completion of the research and development effort a Li-foil multi-wire proportional counter (MWPC) neutron detector with more than 625-cm2 of active area will be included in a portable radiation detection system. The system is expected to outperform the standards set by the ANSI N42.53 standards, and gamma-ray rejection ratio (GRR) of 1.0x10-8 or better. A gamma-ray spectrometer for isotope ...
