Functionally smart materials, which have to ability to perform both sensing and actuating operations, are being developed to perform many aircraft type of control events. Smart materials, fabricated suing "continuous ferroelectric fibers," are being consider for full flight control of subsonic missiles, as the servoactuator system, specifically, and for active aerodynamic surface cont ...

The goal of this program is to design and fabricate selected liquid rocket engine combustion components. This goal will be accomplished by developing a low-cost, near net-shape technology for fabrication and rapid densification of ablation and oxidation-resistant LRE components for a wide variety of Air Force missions. The material which will be used for this purpose is zirconium diboride/boron ...

AeroMed Software, L.L.C., proposes to develop an interactive virtual environment simulator for vertical aircraft signal training. The proposed system is intended to provide Landing Signal Enlisted (LSE) trainees with a dynamic training device similar to the operational flight trainers used by aviators. Recent advances in data acquisition, signal processing and graphics software, computer process ...

40368 Beam Diagnostics Lab, Inc. Existing and proposed particle accelerators used in basic research experiments need to record fast moving particles coming from many directions. This project will develop a multi-channel optical measurement system which provides all observation data to a single oscilloscope. The technique utilizes the wide frequency band of a single mode optical fiber. It uses ...

BONN Corporation (BONN) has chosen to concentrate on a methodology that computes an optimal target search in near-real-time, with the capability of accommodating user-definable optimality based upon time / pathlength, probability of target detection target value, and survivability in a dense threat environment. This methodology will be extensible to address multiple airborne platforms and multipl ...

Delta Data Systems, Inc. (DDS), a key developer and supplier of GIS technology to clients such as NASA, COE, NOS, etc. and Neptune Sciences, Inc. (NSI), a developer of the Navy Surf Model and other nearshore related products, will combine their expertise to develop a Marine Geographical Information Systems. Presently, no one method exists to adequately assess the coastal environment. Large datab ...

InP based heterojunction bipolar transistors (HBTs) exhibit proven potential for use in high performance digital integrated circuits and discrete microwave components. For high speed applications, it is desirable to utilize structures that have been designed to promote high levels of nonequilibrium electron transport as this allows realization of higher electron velocities than possible for diffus ...
