The proposed Phase II program will optimize the design and manufacturing process of a compliant brush shroud casing. Recent tests at Wright Laboratories with staged brush seals have demonstrated significantly increased blade to shroud rub tolerance of acompliant casing. Phase I of the program is expected to demonstrate the feasibility of two innovative brush shroud designs with lower cost and we ...

Proposed for development is an escape trunk cofferdam that is made of a set of rigid (composite sandwich) cylindrical sectors joined by longitudinal sealing joints. The cofferdam is attached to the escape trunk's bubble skirt by an attachment ring whichallows the sections of the cofferdam to be staged below the hatch before it is opened. When the hatch is opened, the sectors are raised through t ...

There are now 300 languages spoken in the United States and millions of Americans travel abroad each year to foreign countries. Public service officials, military personnel, educators and medical professionals need to be able to communicate with anever-increasing non-English speaking population. In the past it was necessary for a person to be bilingual or use an interpreter. Now, a handheld voi ...

This phase I SBIR project will develop a trauma unit that combines emerging life support technology with innovative wireless units that can transmit vital patient data to a central computer. The applicant intends to develop a separate, low-cost, soldierborn monitoring module that is capable of long-term battery operation (several days per charge) and able to transmit the patients location using G ...

A small autonomous underwater vehicle (AUV), with appropriate chemical, acoustic and optical sensor systems, would be a useful tool for remote, automated tracking and mapping of underwater plumes of leaking organic chemical explosives and locating theirsource. Presently it is not possible to survey and track such underwater plumes because available AUV-deployable chemical analyzers do not have the ...
