BioMedical Enterprises, Inc. (BME) and NASA Ames Research Center (NASA ARC) are developing NASA's aerospace insulation materials for use as an osseous scaffolding to facilitate and support bone wound healing and regeneration. Fibrous reusable composite insulation (FRCI) developed by NASA for use on the space shuttle was modified to promote bone ingrowth and will be evaluated for its ability to fo ...

IN THE CONTEXT OF INFORMATION MANAGEMENT, ONTOLOGY IS THE TASK OF EXTRACTING THE NATURE AND STRUCTURE OF A GIVEN EINGEERING, MANUFACTURING, BUSINESS, OR LOGISTICAL DOMAIN AND STORING IT INAN EXPRESSIVELY RICH, USABLE, COMPUTATIONALLY FEASIBLE REPRESENTATIONAL MEDIUM. AN ARRAY OF ONTOLOGY DATABASES IN USE ACROSS A WIDE VARIETYOF SUCH SYSTEMS WOULD REVOLUTIONIZE THE TASKS OF INFORMATION MANAGEMENT A ...

RELIABLE OBJECT-BASED CONTROL SOFTWARE (ROCS) ISA PROGRAMMING TECHNOLOGY THAT CAN BE COMBINED WITH BOTH INDUSTRIAL PROGRAMMABLE CONTROLLERS AND POWERFUL RISC BASED PROCESSORS TO CONSTRUCTFLEXIBLE CONTROL COMPONENTS OF GENERAL PURPOSE MACHINE TOOLS. ROCS ALSO SUPPORTS THE COMBINATION OF THOSE COMPONENTS INTO INNOVATIVE STATION, CELL, CENTER OR FACTORY AUTOMATION CONCEPTS. THE PROPOSED TECHNOLOGY WO ...

Carbon-Carbon components, initially developed for the aerospace industry, have experienced minimal commercialization over the past decade due to cost constraints. C-C composites are excellent candidates for a wide variety of components such as automotive clutches, brakes, and liners, due to its friction and heat transfer characteristics. Recently, within the past five (5) years, new C-C processing ...
