THE CONTRACTOR SHALL DEVELOP A FUZZY SET METHODOLOGY FOR UNCERTAINTY ANALYSIS IN PROBABILISTIC SEISMIC SAFETY ASSESSMENT OF NUCLEAR POWER PLANTS. FUZZY SET LOGIC WILL BEUSED FOR COLLECTING, QUANTIFYING AND PROPAGATING SUBJECTIVE,ENGINEERING JUDGEMENT USED IN THE UNCERTAINTY ANALYSIS. IN PHASE I, FEASIBILITY OF THE PROPOSED APPROACH WILL BE DEMONSTRATED BY APPLYING IT TO SELECTED PARTS OF A PROBABI ...

Nanohmics designed and will fabricate a ruggedized Blood and Pharmaceutical Cooling and Storage system (BPCS) that meets current and future performance requirements for temperature selection and energy efficiency using several building block technologies that outperform the design of the currently used portable refrigeration system.This is accomplished by employing a refrigeration technology that ...

The published data has demonstrated that the currently available resuscitation fluids have detrimental effects on trauma outcomes.By addressing these deficiencies it is expected that the outcomes will improve. The crystalloid based resuscitation fluid in development by GanD Inc. has been designed to address all of the shortcomings of the currently available solutions.The solution, GND-001, is a cr ...

SOCOM seeks an innovative, computationally efficient, and automated process that uses high-resolution, still-frame images and/or Full Motion Video, collected from handheld devices, to generate 3D models of building interiors.The ability to use handheld inputs for 3D modeling, at its fundamental level, is a core interest for computer vision and photogrammetric engineering. Hence, the solution will ...

Providing Army combat medics with meaningful experience in treatment of battlefield injuries is a particular challenge. Moulage has the potential to assist in acquiring what could otherwise be very hard-to-come-by preparatory experience for distressing real-life emergencies medics and soldiers may encounter in the field. However, current approaches to moulage are limited in their ability to reflec ...

Oceanit proposes to develop novel nutraceutical and/or pharmaceuticals to enhance important USSOCOM Multi-Purpose Canine (MPC) performance attributes that optimize their performance, improve recovery time when wounded and increase their survivability.

Fabrico Technology, Dr. Sanchita Bhadra and Professor Andrew Ellington of the University of Texas at Austin, have successfully demonstrated the proof-of-concept of an unparalleled, first-in-class in-field nucleic acid diagnostic platform for distinction of viable from non-viable E. coli and coliforms in

In the proposed effort, KAC will establish a process for reverse engineering and redesigning foreign weapons, primarily the 7.62x54R PKM and the 12.7x108mm NSV. Our engineers will use laser scanning to reverse engineer weapons from our on-site museum. We will reverse engineer the bolt from the PKM in order to demonstrate the viability of the laser scanner, our engineers, and our machine shop to co ...

Stem cell apoptosis occurs when the interaction between the host brain extracellular matrix (ECM) and human induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC) derived neural stem cell (NSCs) are directly injected into the injured brain regions. Establishment of a connection between ECM and iPSC/NSC could increase cell viability, differentiation, and promote functional recovery of the injured tissue. The critica ...

A joint can exit its socket when it is exposed to an unhealthy level of force or rotation, causing a large amount of pain and loss of functionality in the limb. Joint dislocation can easily be diagnosed by a physical examination: palpitation of the affected joint will usually cause pain and tenderness in the patient, and the dislocated head of the bone can be felt out of its usual position in the ...
