Research conducted in Phase I identified a range of data sources providing vehicle related information to consumers shopping around or interested in knowing more about vehicles. Majority of the commercial data sources focused on vehicle features, new/used/CPO pricing, and vehicles listings. Such data sources lacked safety as their central focus, which is a concern for U.S. Department of Transporta ...

Rigid Wall Shelters (RWS) are an integral building block for Marine Corp operations and support a multitude of operational needs from maintenance and repair operations to command posts and medical operations. There are several critical operational deficiencies with metal RWS. The weight of legacy systems and lack of insulation result in a high cost to transport and difficulty heating and cooling i ...

Dissecting missile motors for the analysis of the chemical and physical properties of the propellant is indeed an inherently dangerous process. Ignition of the propellant during the dissection process would surely result in the catastrophic loss of facility and personnel. The process of dissection must perform with a bare minimum of well understood, monitored and managed risk factors all while max ...

The objective of the efforts being proposed is to develop high energy density and power density batteries with long cycle life by high-speed additive manufacturing technologies.

As jet fuel flows through the CuNi fuel lines in aircraft fueling systems, copper (Cu) is dissolved into the fuel. The Cu contamination can reach up to 1 ppmw and these contaminants could catalyze oxidation reactions that cause hydrocarbons to decompose to elemental carbon and form deposits on the fuel lines, valves, injectors, and engine combustion chamber surfaces.TDA Research, Inc. (TDA) propos ...

STILMAN’s Linguistic Geometry, Real-time Adversarial Intelligence and Decision-making (LG-RAID) Technology has been developed with extensive support from DARPA, NAVSEA and Department of Defense stakeholders. NAVSEA PEO IWS 1.0 desires to adapt, test, validate and transition this novel, innovative technology to accelerate tactical mission planning within complex strategic and tactical environment ...

The objective is to develop and test a functional prototype of a 3D Dome radar with full hemispherical coverage (0-90 degrees vertical and 360 degree horizontal). This prototype shall have an update rate of 1 Hz, a tracking range of 2 km that weighs less than 12 kg and an estimated cost of close to $150,000. SpotterRF shall test the 3D radar to determine its tracking range against a DJI Phantom 4 ...

To address the need for oceanography tactics training able to enhance community knowledge of how oceanography impacts antisubmarine-warfare (ASW) prosecution in both analysis and employment of tactical sonar systems, ARiA will build on the success of the Phase I effort to further develop the ESAIL Cloud software-based tool for generation of training content on tactical employment of oceanography t ...

Nanoscale, material sensitive, imaging techniques are critical for progress in many disciplines as we learn to master science and technology at the smallest dimensions — on the nanometer to atomic-scale. However, progress in both science and technology is becoming increasingly limited by the constraints of current imaging techniques and metrologies. Fortunately, by combining coherent extreme UV ...

We present the design of a small, portable, microwave cold atomic clock that meets the frequency stability requirement of < 8X10-13 at 1 s averaging time and < 3X10-15 for an averaging time of 1 day. The entire clock is about the size of a desktop computer 18.75 ” X 14.75 ” X 8.77 ” (47.6 cm X 37.5 cm X 22.3 cm) and weighs 30.5 kg. The clock can run on both 100-240 VAC as well as +24 VDC. St ...
