The United States Army has identified the need for high power efficiency transmitter systems. The goals of the U.S. Army can be achieved through the use of switched mode amplifiers used as Class D or E. The objective of this proposed Phase I SBIR program is to design a pair of complementary FET's (N-Channel and P-Channel) capable of switching at frequencies sufficient to provide switch mode ampl ...

This project will analyze and select promising materials and designs to be used in the plumes of tactical solid rocket motors for missile steering and control. The emphasis is on high-performance refractory materials and compatibility of material systems. The control fins experience severe thermal and severe particulate erosion environments. Missile controllability requires fins with minimal er ...

A key problem associated with aircraft turboshaft engines is the need to provide adequate cooling for the combustor liner. The general approach which has been taken toward this problem is to utilize a portion of incoming combustor air for film-cooling of the liner. This proposal deals with a cooling technique for combustor liners which does not utilize film cooling. Instead, a special liner des ...

This Small Business Innovation Research Phase I project presents an application of Damaskos, Inc.'s trade marked ThinShield microstructure-engineered material to the problem of low frequency shielding of the magnetic fields emanating from the barrel of an electric gun. The project objective is to demonstrate the shielding effectiveness of a Thin-Shield material on a small scale test model with lab ...

US Army planners emphasize implementation of a total protection umbrella for soldiers in any future tactical scenarios by providing them with full communication and EW capability to effectively defeat a variety of threats, such as smart munitions and artillery fuzes. A digitized battlefield information is hence provided to the information processing centers to plan a coordinated tactical solution ...
