The TAF Mobile Office Module provides 4G LTE connectivity and office services needed by DLAs mobile workforce. The TAF Mobile Office Module is light enough to be lifted by one person and installs in the vehicle in under one minute. It allows DLA Disposition Services mobile workers to continue the use of GSA fleet vehicles by simply buckling in the TAF Mobile Office Module. This provides DLA the fu ...

The primary goal of a terrorist-organized data leak is to share private data with the rest of the world. Once acquired, U.S. Government personnel information can provide actionable information to use against the U.S. in the form of direct strike, blackmail, fraud, or impersonation. For special operators at numerous government organizations, this leakage or discovery of personal information can hav ...

There is ample evidence and channels for US military operational information to be released via social media and the interment; possibly compromising OPSEC. Tools to accurately identify what publicly available information is out there are lacking and even if these data were readily available, the volume is quite significant and tools to integrate and analyze are likewise lacking. Moving from overs ...

Advanced lightweight ablative materials are needed to provide additional performance gains for next-generation ballistic missile defense system (BMDS) interceptors. The interceptor third stage, in particular, will benefit substantially from a reduction in inert weight, which enables increased missile stack velocity. Operational targets for the interceptor third-stage rocket motor (TSRM), and for o ...

San Diego Composites (SDC) is developing a toroidal composite overwrap pressure vessel (COPV) for use on next generation propulsion systems. A development effort sought to optimize the electron beam welding process parameters to reduce weld integrity sensitivity to poor fit up conditions when butt-welding the thin titanium liners integral to these composite overwrapped tanks. Results from this dev ...

Ricin is a category B toxin due to its ease of acquisition, dissemination, and the high potential for morbidity and mortality after exposure. Ricin in semi-purified or purified form is extremely toxic to humans following injection, inhalation, or ingestion and has been used as an agent of bioterrorism. Ricin was recently detected in U.S. government facilities. There are currently no methods of pre ...

Vibrant Corporation and Sandia National Laboratories (SNL) propose to apply Process Compensated Resonance Testing (PCRT) to the DLA's need for an NDI method to detect substandard, counterfeit, nonconforming and improperly processed materiel. PCRT collects and analyzes the resonance frequencies of a component to detect structural defects, characterize material, analyze population variation, monitor ...

The S-351 mini-sub is a prototype of the Dry Combat Submersible (DCS). This prototype was established as a means of risk reduction prior to a full commitment to the DCS program. Both of these platforms have an operational need to transit with minimum operator fatigue safely to a pre-defined point and covertly deploy and retrieve SEALS. To meet these operational needs, these platforms require upgra ...

This Small Business Innovation Proposal aims to establish the feasibility of developing a high flux x-ray source using a patent-pending microstructured anode comprised of Platinum microstructures embedded in a diamond substrate. The resulting source will provide a breakthrough in achievable throughput for the application of rapid integrated circuit (IC) inspection, due to two major innovative adva ...

To address the DMEA need for rapid x-ray inspection of large volumes of integrated circuits (ICs), Luminit, LLC, proposes to develop a new compact, high-brilliance x-ray source: the Ferroelectric X-Ray Generator (FLEX). This proposed device is based on an innovative combination of a ferroelectric, photogalvanic crystal combined with an undulator. The innovation in the physical principles of compac ...
