High G Aerodynamic Controls | Approved for Public Release 18-MDA-9707 (3 Jul 18)

System-level simulations of the Ballistic Missile Defense System (BMDS) generate extremely large quantities of highly multidimensional data, which analysts at the Missile Defense Agency (MDA) must explore and analyze to infer insights and relationships. Existing tools based on automated routine scripts are ill-equipped to handle the volume and complexity of these data, requiring piecemeal analysis ...

Traumatic injuries account for 30% of all life years lost in the US and is the leading cause of death for people under 46 years of age. Uncontrolled bleeding or hemorrhage constitute 30-40% of trauma related deaths and are considered to be a major cause o

Defense Health Agency (DHA) is seeking a multi-functional diagnostic to determine blood coagulopathy in real time at point-of-care (POC). Blood coagulopathy, resulting in uncontrolled bleeding, is implicated in 80% of operating room deaths and 50% of trau

The objective of this proposal is to eliminate reliance on integrated non-uniformity correction hardware in electro-optical/ infrared (EO/IR) sensors to reduce sensor size, weight, power, and cost (SWaP-C), simplify maintenance and integration, and streamline mission continuity of operations. The Digital-pixel Readout Integrated Circuits (DROIC) is an enabling technology for future sensors built f ...

Using a combination of parallel processing and explorative visualization, a new and exciting solution for high-performance visual analysis of large multidimensional data is proposed. Steady volume flows are selected to demonstrate the strategy, methodology, techniques, and functionalities. Virtual Reality (VR) and Augmented Reality (AR) platforms will be adopted to unleash the power of explorative ...

Vigilant Cyber Systems, Inc. (VCS) proposes to design and develop the Manipulation Analysis and Visualization (MAV) Tool to enable users to analyze extremely large and diverse multi-dimensional datasets and gain insight into the data and the phenomena that produced the data. MAV will revolutionize analysis of modeling and simulation and test data by significantly enhancing user cognition and enabl ...

High G Aerodynamic Controls | Approved for Public Release 18-MDA-9707 (3 Jul 18)

Our vision for the next generation missile and space propulsion engine is a flexible and non-toxic propulsion technology using HAN/kerosene, offering variable thrust with a high degree of mission tailoring. Additionally, high bulk density of HAN/kerosene bi-propellant improves stage mass fraction and delivers performance metrics that exceed current toxic storable propellants. We propose an innovat ...

he Storable Clean Ethane-ethylene Nitrous Engine (SCENE) is a proposed technology designed to provide upper stages and spacecraft with non-toxic, liquid, non-cryogenic, high-performance propulsion with an Isp on the order of 300 seconds. The propellant components are stored as liquids under their saturated vapor pressures. With the SCENE, nitrous oxide is used as an autogenously pressurized oxidiz ...
