In this effort, nGimat will develop the capabilities to produce high-quality optical ceramic nanopowder for DoD applications such as laser and missile weapons and defense systems.Development of such capabilities will require improvements in current man...

Virtual EM Inc. is proposing to develop scalable libraries optimized on Many Integrated Core (MIC) processors for accelerating Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) codes. The proposed approach is based on Virtual EMs past work on accelerating Computational Electromagnetics (CEM) codes using MICs processors. The result will be a substantial reduction in run time of Armys CFD codes accelerating develo ...

ABSTRACT: The goal of the Phase II work is to significantly advance the maturity of the IMPULSE system through the detail design, development, and comprehensive bench testing of its power and propulsion systems. The Phase I conceptual design showed that the system was able to meet the desired performance requirements for a Group 2 SUAS. This work will expand upon this Phase I design, while maintai ...

ABSTRACT:Silicon-based lasers/detectors have long been desired for owing to the possibility of monolithic integration of photonics with high-speed Si electronics and the aspiration of broadening the reach of Si technology by expanding its functionalities well beyond electronics. The goal of this project is to develop high quality SiGeSn material and also use it to demonstrate high performance opto ...

Versatile construction materials are under development where readily available raw materials (soils) and indigenous construction materials are blended to produce high-performance hydraulic cements. Abundant natural fabrics are used as reinforcement to produce indigenous ferrocements. Natural foaming agents are also used to produce indigenous aerated concrete. Sandwich composites comprising indigen ...

Additive Manufacturing is a disruptive technology that has the ability to change how components are made, used and repaired. The past 10 years have seen a rapid increase in the availability of low cost 3d printers. The sophistication, quality and ease of use for these tools has been increasing rapidly while the cost is decreasing. There exists an emerging opportunity to combine printed electronics ...

Signature Research proposes to develop and demonstrate reliable, robust and effective methods for physically accurate and timely representation of dynamic, thermally active vehicles moving within operationally realistic terrains and surroundings needed to support missile-borne seeker development, system-level performance evaluations, military utility assessments and mission planning. The overall e ...

Electrochemical Machining (ECM) is controllable and scalable, harnessing corrosion to deliver the unique capability of machining complex shapes comprising very hard materials in relatively benign electrolytes. ECM tools have traditionally been designed by trial and error, which is time-consuming and expensive, making the process optimization and project management very difficult. The ECM process i ...

Today, commercial and military wireless communications systems require high functionalities for microwave components and devices.Filters are critical components for radar, electronic warfare, and modern microwave communication systems.Traditional approaches using banks of fixed filters and waveguide cavity or a dielectric resonator loaded cavity filters are bulky and heavy and dont fully meet the ...

To enable the operation of Blue Force Tracking over the WGS satellite constellation, Envistacom proposes a phased array panel solution that is steered mechanically in the azimuth direction and steered electronically in elevation, giving full 360 degree azimuth coverage and -50 to 90 degree elevation coverage.Envistacom will use a combination of innovative panel design, filtering, and signal proces ...
