THE PROPOSED EFFORT WILL ASSESS THE FEASIBILITY OF USING COMPUTER AIDED DESIGN TECHNOLOGY TO PROJECT SYSTEM RELATED MANPOWER REQUIREMENTS. MANPOWER AND SKILL DETERMINATIONS HAVE HISTORICALLY OCCURED LATTE IN THE DESIGN PROCESS AND THUS HAVE HAD LITTLE IMPACT UPON SYSTEM DESIGN DECISIONS. THE INCREASING SCARCITY OF MANPOWER RESOURCES REQUIRES THAT THEY BE GIVEN AN INTERACTIVE ROLE IN SYSTEM DEVELOP ...

A NEW MATHEMATICAL TRANSFORM METHOD FOR THE COMPRESSION OF MOTION VIDEO HAS BEEN FORMULATED BY AVELEX AND A BREADBOARD MODEL FABRICATED TO DEMONSTRATE LOW BIT-RATE MONOCHROME IMAGERY. A METHOD IS PROPOSED FOR OBTAINING COLOR MOTION VIDEO BY A NOVEL MEANS WITH A RATHER SMALL INCREASE IN THE AMOUNT OF DATA REQUIRED TO BE TRANSMITTED. THE BENEFIT OF THIS NEW TECHNOLOGY IS TO PROVIDE STABLE MOTION IMA ...

TWO GENERAL APPROACHES TO FLAT WINDING ARE DISCUSSED. IN ONE METHOD, THE WINDING SEQUENCE BEGINS BY WINDING THE FIRST LAYER ON A SPIRAL PATTERN INSIDE TO OUT, THEN WINDING THE NEXT LAYER OUTSIDE TO IN. IN ANOTHER METHOD, TWO SUCCESSIVE LAYERS ARE WOUND BY METERING OUT A PREDETERMINED LENGTH SUFFICIENT FOR A WINDING OUT FROM THE CORE AND BACK, HOLDING METERED FIBER ON AN AUXILIARY SPOOL, WINDING FR ...

THE NEED FOR IMMEDIATE AND EFFECTIVE TREATMENT AND CORRECTION OF CRITICAL ARRYTHMIAS IS AN ACCEPTED FACT. HOWEVER, DEFIBRILLATORS ARE STILL BEING SOLD WEIGHING IN THE ORDER OF 20-40 LBS. MAKING THEIR APPLICATION IN THE EMERGENCY ENVIRONMENT DIFFICULT. IT HAS BEEN ESTABLISHED THAT VENTRICULAR FIBRILLATION RECOVERY IS DIRECTLY PROPORTIONAL TO THE SPEED OF APPLICATION OF THE DC COUNTERSHOCK (DEFIBRIL ...

COMPUTER SOFTWARE PROGRAMS ARE DEVELOPED FOR CONTROLLING THE DISPLAY FUNCTION OF A COLOR TACHISTOSCOPE TO BE USED ON VISUAL PSYCHOPHYSICS AND VISUAL PHYSIOLOGY RESEARCH. THE SYSTEM IS CONTROLLED BY A PDP-11 MINICOMPUTER INTERFACED TO A GENISCO 3000 DISPLAY SYSTEM. THE SYSTEM ALLOWS THE INDEPENDENT VARIATIONS OF FORM, COLORS AND MOVEMENT.

Improving vehicle fuel efficiency for the military can significantly reduce costs and reduce risk to solider safety. One way to improve vehicle efficiency for new and legacy vehicles is to reduce frictional loses in the drivetrain through use of lower viscosity lubricants. However, this comes with the risk of reducing durability of drivetrain components through increased wear, pitting and scuffing ...

This proposal presents A Platform Agnostic Low SWaP-C Chirped LFMCW Radar for counter-UAS application. The radar utilizes IFT’s unique gated radar structure to reduce transmission carrier leakage into the receiver channel and minimize the oscillator phase noise influence on the target signal. In addition, the digital signal processing provides high processing gain. These enable the radar to achi ...
