Service members deployed worldwide are at risk of exposures to local environmental and industrial toxicants which can potentially result in long-term adverse health effects. Understanding the impact of these exposures is critical for improved force protection and safeguarding individual soldier health. Capturing and classifying exposure data is essential for implementing risk mitigation strategies ...

The primary objective of the A-WUPC Phase II Sequential program is to enhance warfighter lethality by leveraging innovative technology to decrease the size and weight of mission critical power electronics carried by the Soldier. The proposed system aims to provide more power, in smaller/lighter packages, with improved ruggedness and reliability. By continuing the evolution of the Warfighter Univer ...

The CONOPS for the Expeditionary Medical Support System (EMEDS) is based on practical effectiveness, speed, and efficiency. Key among the tools required by the Air Mobility Command and the Air Combat Command, which are two of the major commands that are part of the United Air Force is a multi-channel intravenous infusion pump capable of delivering fluids that meets the safe-to-fly criteria for all ...

Dignitas’ overall objective for Phase II is to enhance Cyber training capabilities by developing the Intelligent Cyber Adversaries Tool Suite (ICATS), a capable and flexible intelligent cyber adversary as a training tool for a target system such as OneSAF while looking forward to plans for next generation training system. ICATS provides automated cyber adversaries that conduct OPFOR defensive an ...

Problem: Currently available resuscitation fluids have been shown to induce detrimental effects on trauma outcomes. Objective: The objective of this proposal is to use the data from the successful Phase 1 studies to guide the continued development and te

For mission success in the modern operational environment, chemical threat agents must be rapidly detected and accurately identified. Currently M8 and M9 papers are used, but these are restricted in the types of agents that can be detected and are handicapped by high rates of false identifications. In Phase I, highly selective color change chemical reactions were formulated and deployed onto paper ...

Army defense technologies for high speed threat intercept increasingly rely on vehicle maneuverability through both aerodynamic and thrust augmentation. Similarly, threats have relied on equally maneuvering defenses to avoid intercept. Thus, it is in the interest of any defense system to target the threat at any point in the battlespace where it is most vulnerable, potentially resulting in interce ...

The primary objective of this effort is to greatly advance the state-of-the-art in missile plume signature modeling through the development and validation of both an advanced turbulence – chemistry interaction model, as well as a new turbulence – radiation interaction model. These new and innovative modeling formulations are required to accurately capture local flame extinction effects that re ...

The Phase II objective is to develop and field test a rugged, handheld nondestructive testing (NDT) system for armor plates to assess non-ballistic damage. We will acquire dozens of plates from at least two vendors who supply 7.62 mm armor to the Army. These plates will be exposed to various levels of damage and NDT data will be collected throughout the aging/damage process. At several discrete le ...

Parabon NanoLabs has used a multifaceted approach to discover strong interactions between DNA and organophosphate (OP) nerve agents that involved molecular dynamic (MD) simulations, computer aided design (CAD) of specific DNA nanostructures using its proprietary InSequio Design Studio, and laboratory validation of interactions between different DNA constructs and an OP simulant. While the interact ...
