Plasma Processes non-eroding throat liner technology for aluminized propellants has been significantly matured since 1999. An upcoming full-scale test will demonstrate that the technology is sufficient for transition consideration. However, there remain gaps in the technology that must be addressed prior to transition. The objective of this effort is to address these obstacles in order to expedite ...

In the Phase I research, our business will develop a preliminary Data Architecture, data model, and other architectural artifacts for a Big Data solution to manage Ballistic Missile Defense System (BMDS) System of Systems and related simulation data. The prime contractor of Objective Simulation Framework (OSF) will provide BMDS subject matter expertise and knowledge of existing systems and proces ...

RNET has proposed the development of technologies that can be utilized to determine whether a particular electronic component is counterfeit, defective, or non-conforming. The purpose is to develop a set of methods to identify affected electronics whether they have recently entered the supply chain or have been integrated as part of a system. RNET is planning to utilize unique signatures obtain ...

Davidson Technologies, Inc (DTI) proposes to develop the architecture and design for an innovative Course of Action (COA) analysis tool that seamlessly integrates defense design analyses, what-if analyses, and COA development. DTI will develop the architecture and design through our Capabilities Adaptive Approach, used to derive requirements and develop system-of-systems simulations. Our work pr ...

Combatant Commands (CoComs) desire the ability to perform analyses on current plans, Blue Force Laydowns (BLFDs), and enemy Courses of Action (COA). These capabilities support critical decision making for Requests For Forces (RFFs) and assess whether modification of forces or additional forces should be applied to mission areas. Analyses must take into account resource performance, resource avai ...

Lewis Innovative Technologies, Inc. (LIT) proposes a reconfigurable memory addressing architecture that provides both hardware and software protection. The LIT system obfuscates (modifies) the memory address of critical data interface with a data/software binding technique. Approved for Public Release 14-MDA-8047 (14 Nov 14)

In Phase I, SRICO will experimentally demonstrate the concept and complete the design of a compact robust, polarization insensitive integrated optic phase modulator and polarization controller module for Phase II development. SRICO proposes to develop a phase modulator and polarization controller based on new waveguide technologies to handle high optical power and novel device geometries to achie ...

The proposed work will demonstrate the feasibility of improved navigation performance using innovative software to process data from an industry standard LN-200 IMU. In Phase II, the software will be incorporated in a notional weapon system inertial navigation system (INS) and subjected to static and dynamic tests in a Hardware-in-the-Loop (HWIL) environment. Through Phase III commercialization, ...

Fast cook-off (FCO) mitigation solutions rely on a system approach including propellant chemistry and packaging modifications. Case venting is recommended so that in a fire, pressure is unable to build to a critical point. Cornerstone Research Group Inc. (CRG) and a commercial partner propose to integrate an existing thermoplastic toughening agent containing core-shell nanothermite into a compos ...

Penta Research will develop and provide a conceptual model outlining a new innovative, optimally developed capability for a rapid, multi-run, end-to-end, Statistically Significant Simulation of the BMDS. We will establish a flexible environment to appropriately combine modeling fidelity and/or resolution with simulation run time (or large run counts) allowing for assessments and sensitivity trade ...
