Transportation Tech is the development and implementation of an online, on‐demand educational curricula for Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) and Connected Vehicle (CV) technology. Transportation Tech content is designed and developed to encourage students to choose careers in ITS as well as train current ITS and CV technicians in the field. Through customized portals, at the end of the P ...

LI-COR proposes to continue development of a next-generation CO2/CH4/H2O analyzer that will offer an unprecedented combination of high precision and stability, making it the first highperformance gas analyzer suitable for long-term unattended operation. The instrument will be smaller, lighter, and far less expensive than competing technologies. LI-COR’s approach exploits a proprietary, revolutio ...

The output of this Phase I will be several lighter weight ACV 1.1 potential candidates, these include components within the land and marine propulsion systems (drive shafts and propeller), hull shapes (bow vane and stern/trim flaps) as well as doors, hatches, inlet grill, exhaust ducts and grills. These components will take advantage of the ideal properties that composite has to offer: lightweight ...

PEI is proposing to design and develop a composite frame structure which will serve as the foundation and means for easy assembly and removal of either array sections, modules or individual vertical block staves (VBS). PEI will develop structural technologies for building and installing these large conformal arrays to the exterior hull. PEI technology will be expanded to allow conformal sonar arra ...

PEI will develop a design concept for an Adaptable Universal Composite Canister System (AUCCS) for the VPM. This system will cost- effectively accommodate the variety of Unmanned Systems (UxS) payloads being planned for submarine deployment and provide the required common hosts services and provide shock mitigation. We also believe that the AUCCS will not only lower the costs of launching the vari ...

PEI will development and design a light weight, resistant to corrosion and ice adhesion, water tight and low maintenance VLS Composite Missile Hatch. PEI design will include polymers and nanofibers and materials, will utilize low costs composite manufacturing, design, performance evaluation, and analysis techniques will enable us to develop a cell hatch that will meet all performance requirements. ...

Thermal control of a space satellite in orbit is usually accomplished by balancing the energy emitted by the satellite as infrared radiation against the energy dissipated by internal electrical (and other) sources plus energy absorbed from the environment. Due to changing conditions as the satellite orbits there is strong need for a simple thermal control surface operable with low electric power. ...

SUCCESSFUL APPLICATION OF ARTIFICIAL NEURAL NETWORKS (ANNS) TO ROBOTIC CONTROL, COMPUTER VISION, ADVANCED SIGNAL PROCESSING AND SPEECH RECOGNITION, REQUIRE TWO ORDERS OF MAGNITUDE INCREASE IN EXECUTION SPEED AND STORAGE SIZE OVER COURRENT ANN SIMULATION EQUIPMENT. IMPORTANT ALSO, IS THE NEED FOR EQUIPMENT THAT IS APPROPRIATE FOR PROLIFERATED APPLICATION OF ANNS TO A DIVERSE FIELD OF COMPUTERS AND ...
