"This project will develop and implement in embedded hardware the capability needed to configure pre hit, a component level automation infrastructure.This approach optimizes survivability using models of damage or casualty scenarios. This capability willbe demonstrated in a laboratory hardware in the loop simulation. This project leverages the results of several other ongoing research efforts al ...

"The United States Navy is using and/or experimenting with active, coherent and incoherent sources to detect and localize submarines operated throughout the world. As the U.S. Navy continues to develop and employ active sensors and moves into littoralareas occupied by higher densities of marine mammals, adverse environmental impacts are likely to occur.

This syndrome may present as either a primary autoimmune disease or as a secondary autoimmune disease most often concomitant with other connective tissue diseases or diabetes. Although classi ...

The terahertz (THz) region of the electromagnetic spectrum is under-utilized for lack of convenient sources. In particular, there is no commercial solid-state far-infrared laser at sub-millimeter wavelengths. The objective of this STTR Phase II project isto deliver well-defined far-infrared solid-state laser products based on the p-Ge active medium. Phase I feasibility demonstrations included elec ...
