Engin's core mission is to provide innovative solutions to a broad range of engineering challenges. In this tradition, Engin is proud to propose an innovative reusable securing system that solves the excess/wasteful dunnage inherent to the current MATPAC solution. The proposed system will bring lowered total ownership costs and reduced logistics footprint to the Expeditionary Airfield (EAF) Integr ...

Next-generation naval ships will require electric machinery with at least 50% greater power density than is available today. Such machines must deliver up to 10s of MW at 100-200 rpm with very high energy efficiency, extremely low noise signature, and reasonable cost. Electrostatic machine technology is often overlooked but is perfectly suited to achieving these goals. C-Motive Technologies propos ...

Numerous Government Agencies and Commercial Organizations are dependent on mission critical ecosystems (ie federated systems of systems). There are generally multiple systems of systems using various technologies that are difficult to integrate and monitor. They face challenges aggregating all of the subsystem data including the system and application logs, events, and alerts into one central data ...

Tetramer Technologies, a specialty materials research company, aims to develop a more robust elastomer material for cushioned clamps used by the Navy. Cushioned clamps serve an important role in securing hydraulic, fuel, and electrical lines in Navy aircraft. The existing cushions have shown sporadic and unreliable breakdown in use, despite being rated to a rigorous MIL standard. Tetramer proposes ...

For this Phase 1 Small Business Technology Transfer (STTR) project, Blackmore Sensors and Analytics and university partner Montana State University will investigate the use of coherent frequency modulated continuous wave (FMCW) ladar/lidar and digital holography techniques for improved performance of active imaging through fog. Coherent range, Doppler, and polarization selective digital holography ...

The Phase I project objective is to develop and demonstrate the feasibility for use of an alternative process for mixing high-energy solid propellant materials that are used for gas generators in U.S. Navy strategic missile post-boost propulsion systems, other large missiles, and launch vehicles. In addition, the advanced mixing technology does not use impellers for mixing. The process selected fo ...

The Phase I effort provides an evaluation of variations of the no-impeller, no-blade propellant mixing approach. The assessment of this technology, specific trade studies of the incorporation of the technology into the propellant manufacturing process, and the accompanying laboratory evaluations demonstrate the feasibility of using this technology to replace the legacy methods for producing substa ...

The U.S. Navy requires reliable all-solid-state batteries (ASSB) with solid electrolytes to enhance their performance and safety. The novelty of the proposed study by NanoCoatings, Inc. (NCI) is the use of Magnetron Sputtering Physical Vapor Deposition (MS PVD) to manufacture thin, dense electrolyte layers of lithium-ion conductor and multiple cathode layers to provide high levels of ionic and ele ...

The Littoral Combat Ship (LCS) is a naval vessel developed to deal with unconventional post-cold-war threats. To protect valued assets, and still maintain the ships maneuverability and speed, the U.S. Navy requires lighter-weight armor. NanoCoatings, Inc. and South Dakota School of Mines & Technology propose a plastic-deformation mechanical treatment, friction-stir-processing (FSP), to enhance the ...

Navy operational needs dictate that thermal interface materials (TIMs) have high thermal conductance, high dielectric strength, form non-permanent bonds, and be resilient to vibration and abrasion. Available TIMs each satisfy a portion of these requirements, but not all of them.Glacigen Materials will develop a new class of TIM by creating a novel composite material. This material will be embodied ...
