Modern DoD applications are benefiting from the proliferation of EO/IR sensor technology. As imagers become cheaper and smaller, they are being more widely deployed for a variety of scenarios. This trend is exemplified by the Navys Future Targeting System (FTS), which will provide laser designation, laser spot imaging, and some target location functions in a single 5.5-pound unit, replacing discre ...

Rigid Wall Shelters (RWS) are an integral building block for Marine Corp operations and support a multitude of operational needs from maintenance and repair operations to command posts and medical operations. There are several key operational deficiencies with metal RWS, the weight of legacy systems and lack of insulation result in a high cost to transport and difficulty heating and cooling interi ...

The proposed Phase II.5 ViPER USMC large mission planning mission planning expansion effort seeks to add capabilities to ViPER-CVW that will provide an initial large force air planning capability to USMC aviation planners. Development will focus on providing route and airspace deconfliction tools which link airspace, flight routing, and planned aircraft movements, as well as automated checks to en ...

The Navy seeks to improve the reliability and the operating life of its airborne Generator Converter Unit.The goal is to develop lightweight and compact equipment to correct leading power factor in a military combat aircrafts power 65kVA, 115V, 400Hz, 3-phase power distribution system. The equipment will correct the power factor from .98 leading to a minimum .97 lagging while complying with Milita ...

Develop innovative methods and associated tools to support the definition of Automatic Test Equipment (ATE) capabilities and their individual instruments using an Open Architecture (OA) approach, to allow for precise understanding of the ATE, interoperability across Navy and DoD electronics maintenance, and improved utilization of Commercial Off-The-Shelf (COTS) tools to support ATE operations. Th ...

The promise of fully integrated simulation-based design has not yet been realized.This is due in large part to the lack of robust tools and infrastructure.The proposed work covers the initial development of a kernel and user interface for isogeometric analysis (IGA).New advances have been made and will be integrated into the kernel and interface.The proposed tasks include integration of a new spli ...

This project proposes the development of a HOST-based test system using automated test software and integrated hardware test instrumentation that will rapidly and accurately test candidate components for HOST standard conformance in form, fit, and function. The Phase II project will implement and test the Conformance Tool (CT) architecture developed in Phase I. The CT Hardware and Software Archite ...

Storagenergy Technologies Inc. proposes to develop an all solid-state battery (ASSB) which can be made by a high-speed AMtechnology.

To reach the end user, oil and gas production at the wellhead must be transmitted through the country and distributed to a wide range of customers. This logistical system requires natural gas gathering lines, processing facilities, product storage tanks and lots of other equipment. What results is air pollution caused by industry losses during these operations and the use of continuous or intermit ...

The goal of this project is the formulation a rigid, insulating, low-density wood composite, with physical and thermal properties comparable to fossil fuel derived foams. _x000D_ _x000D_ To achieve energy conservation standards mandated by certification agencies such as Passive House and LEED, high performance buildings require multiple shells of insulation – an inner shell that contains electri ...
