Silicon Technologies will design and simulate in Verilog-AMS and Cadence Spectre an ADC, two DACs, a serial interface and other circuits to be built on a single chip in a ITAR complaint manufacturing process.The ARMY is interested in this development for use in a SWAP-C ASIC for next generation fuse proximity sensors and other programs.STI proposes to use an existing pipelined ADC that has been bu ...

A novel method for spider silk production is proposed from genetic engineering to fabric production utilizing microbial organisms. Industrially viable process blocks areutilized in each step of the bioprocess to allow for scalability of the overall process towards commercialization. Department of Defense (DoD) and civilian markets have been proven through buy in of DoD entities as well as private ...

As autonomous vehicles become more prevalent in day-to-day military and industry operations, the technology surrounding functionally-safe autonomous subsystems must become increasingly reliable. A vehicles kinetic energy must be safely dissipated during a stop.Steering and braking must be done intelligently to maintain vehicle control and mitigate vehicle wear and tear.There are many factors to co ...

The overall goal of this effort is to quantify the system-level response of structure/shelters to fires.Proposed is a physics-based, multi-dimensional simulation software to quantify the system-level response during fires and to reduce the amount of full-system experimental testing required to ensure personnel safety.An existing REI-developed user interface designed to offer a full suite of tools ...

To further accelerate the commercialization process of our supercapactior yarns, we plan to further lower the production cost, enhance our yearn performance and optimize customer experience via materials and process engineering and innovative platform dev

In order to address the improvised threat to U.S. Forces created by enemy drones, IMSAR proposes to use its Commercial, Off-The-Shelf (COTS) NSP-3 Ku-band radar as the foundation for a system architecture capable of detecting, tracking, and neutralizing enemy drones. With low Size, Weight, and Power (SWaP) requirements, the NSP-3 can provide high capabilities to even small Unmanned Aircraft System ...

Not Available The goal of this effort is to develop a battlefield information dissemination system that facilitates warfighter access to filtered, personalized, current information. Previously implemented systems (e.g.pager, radio based) are expensive to construct, and require the warfighter to carry bulky receiving equipment. The web provides a cheap and lightweight infrastructure for access, ...

Not Available This program will evaluate three submarine coating concepts, one that optimizes current systems and two representing entirely new classes of treatments. These are based on the precept that the limiting factor for coatings is the fundamental connection between static and dynamic properties which often requires that the most effective treatments have the greatest ship impact. The fund ...

IT IS PROPOSED THAT NEW CERAMIC MATERIALS WITH POTENTIAL FOR STRENGTH AND TOUGHNESS RETENTION TO ELEVATED TEMPERATURES WILL BE FABRICATED AND CHARACTERIZED. THESE NEW CERAMIC MATERIALS EXHIBIT A PHENOMENON KNOWN AS FERROELASTICITY. THE PHENOMENON OF FERROELASTICITY IS VERY SIMILAR TO THAT OF FERROELECTRICITY AND FERROMAGNETISM. THE FERROELASTIC STATE IS CHARACTERIZED BY THE EXISTENCE OF AT LEAST T ...

TRA PROPOSES THE DEVELOPMENT OF A LOW COST, ELECTRONICALLY STEERABLE AGILE BEAM ANTENNA. PHASE I DEVELOPMENT WILL EXAMINE THE FEASIBILITY OF THE DEVICE CONFIGURED AS FOUR QUARTER WAVE-LENGTH VERTICAL ELEMENTS(OVER A GROUND PLANE), A PIN DIODE SWITCHING AND PHASING ASSEMBLY, A DEDICATED CONTROL MICROCOMPUTER, AND AN INTERFACED TRANSCEIVER OPERATING WITH A DIGITAL COMMUNICATIONS SYSTEM. THE BEAM WIL ...
