UVCleaning Systems will develop a greywater remediation and recycling system for Army kitchen sanitation centers by combining COTS pre-filtration and ultrafiltration technologies, to reliably reduce all greywater contaminant concentrations except BOD to within the requirements of the solicitation, together with a new UVCleaning Systems photocatalytic reactor following the ultrafiltration membrane ...

Solution Engineering, Inc. (SEI) proposes to develop and demonstrate a prototype real time tracking system that supports robust multiple target tracking in an urban environment.  The approach will focus on increasing the robustness of the core feature tracking algorithms, utilizing target invariant characteristics to extend the ability to track, coast, and reacquire targets.  In addition higher ...

Polydyne and Portland State University propose a layered construction of CNC routed forms utilizing a combination of proprietary materials with a proprietary (non-heat injection molding) process. With variable density patterns, embedded materials and metal layering to construct models that accurately reflect the physics of a full scale vessel, The solution will utilize variably dense materials and ...

The threat posed by remote cyber attacks has grown every year, with nation state attacks being the hardest to detect and blunt. A common cyber attack method against remote systems is the code injection attack, where the attacker finds flaws in a remote application then forces the application to execute injected code. Code injection attacks can give the attacker unlimited access to the attacked sys ...

Wide-area networks are essential to productivity in commercial enterprises and military organizations. Reliability is difficult to achieve because wide-area networks, such as the Internet, are built from many autonomously configured component networks. Today there exists a large gap between the intended design of a network and the implementation of that design. This is because complex network poli ...

Lattice Block Materials, or LBM for short, are a class of materials comprised of an open structure of ligaments arranged in a regular truss like structure that is three dimensional. A basic unit cell is comprised of a square based pyramid skeleton (just the corners, called nodes, and the edges, called ligaments). These cells are connected in all directions to form a larger lattice like structure ...

Pattern generation on the ocean''s surface results from complex interactions of the atmospheric wind above, with the natural and man-made disturbance environment below. Waves are ubiquitous at the surface, and in the upper ocean. While wavetrain analysis is the basis for much of what is known about both linear and nonlinear ocean waves, it is poorly suited to the Navy''s desire for an investigat ...

The main objective of the proposed Phase I project is to leverage the technology of THz generation in resonantly pumped QPM GaAs structures jointly developed by Stanford University and Microtech Instruments, Inc. and identify the best approach for product development activities planned for Phase II of the project. While high THz power, good efficiency and tunability across 0.5-4 THz range has been ...

The use of circular synthetic aperture radar (CSAR) acquisition geometry can help to overcome some of the limitations imposed by currently available SAR technologies for sensing small targets in complex environments. CSAR data are collected over a full 360 degree azimuthal range by flying circular flight geometry while retaining focus on a target. CSAR image formation can be approximated by dividi ...

Sky Research, Inc. and Geometrics, Inc. propose to develop a sensor system that can be efficiently integrated into various versions of the Navy MK 18 MOD 1 Swordfish and Remote Environmental Measurement UnitS (REMUS)-100 in-service Unmanned Underwater Vehicles using extremely small, very low power total field magnetic sensors. To meet the needs of the U.S. Navy, the system will be designed to corr ...
