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 ...

To satisfy unmet military needs for multimode day/night digital image sensors, Voxtel is developing a high-dynamic-range visible-sensitive and near-infrared-sensitive single-photon avalanche diode (SPAD) digital imager with efficient photon detection, hi...

Voice phishing ("vishing") is an increasingly serious threat that cost victims over $46 billion in 2016. Attackers pose as trusted callers using impersonation, voice mimicry, speech synthesis, voice conversion, Caller ID spoofing, and other techniques. Once victims trust the caller, the perpetrator can engage in fraudulent and criminal activities leading to financial losses and security breaches. ...

Eduworks proposes to develop a reference architecture (components, protocols, APIs, standards) for deploying intelligent tutoring systems (ITS) as services in training environments ranging from traditional LMS-centric environments to multi-component live, virtual, and constructive (LVC) environments that include games, simulations, and VR. We will start with a baseline service-oriented architectur ...

To reduce size, weight, power and cost (SWaP-c), military platforms have been evolving towards more integrated platforms that utilize all available space. For radiating systems, this will require exploring innovative design methods, materials and manufacturing approaches to realize cost-effective, customizable and conformal antennas. An attractive solution to this challenge is offered by additive ...

This project aims to develop a low-cost millimeter-wave (mmW) imaging system for ground vehicles, to operate in combination with a long-wave infrared (LWIR) camera. Such a system will mitigate the challenges of driving in degraded visual environments (DVE) including night time, fog, dust, or smoke by providing real-time image of the vehicle surrounding independent from the presence of naturally oc ...

The purpose of this proposal is to demonstrate the feasibility, through modeling and simulation, of integrating engineered polyhedral Phase Transforming Cellular Matrix (PXCM) materials as a dynamic, elastically deformable solution for non-pneumatic tires that can; 1) resist loss of mobility due to hazards that include ballistic/explosive threats, and road debris, 2) extend capability allowing the ...

The objective of this project is to develop a modular, open-architecture, physics-based ground vehicle mobility prediction software tool for world-wide terrains that are encountered in military applications including on-road and off-road soft soil terrains. The tool will integrate three modules: (1) Physics-Based Vehicle-Terrain Modeling tool; (2) Geographic Information System (GIS); and (3) Stoch ...

Today, dismounted squad-level units do not have the capability to hand off targets during the day and at night, covertly and rapidly, and between squad members and supporting vehicles. To address this need, a 12.5-um-pixel-pitch passive readout integrated circuit (ROIC) with asynchronous active laser-spot tracking designed for integration with InGaAs photodiode short-wavelength infrared (SWIR) foc ...
