We propose the design and development of LCS radar modeling for training a radar modeling engine that capture the effects of environment, weather, jamming/interference and operator actions on radar display. The purpose of this engine is to reduce or eliminate the need for live training by faithfully capturing the scenarios encountered by a radar operator. The primary target radars for the propose ...

The proposed program will develop dielectrics for dc superconducting power transmission cables that are cooled with cryogenic helium gas. The Dielectrics will be sealed again helium gas penetration and allow for an operating voltage of 12 kV in a pressure of 2 MPa at 50 K. The dielectrics will be designed for use with all helium facing components of power transmission systems based on CORC cables. ...

This proposal is to extend into Phase II our development of a new system for Recognition of Communities and Heterogeneous Analysis of Group Interactions and Dynamics (RC-HAGID) for Social Media Forecasting. Social media enables groups, including terroris

Clinical monitoring of mental health status has not evolved much from the routine meeting between patient and clinician, which suffers from a lack of quantification, irregular and anecdotal reporting, and does not necessarily include input from family. This is unfortunate given current technology, in which people routinely volunteer to track their own health related behavior, such as exercise and ...

Spontaneous emission is a quantum mechanical process that represents the main source of phase noise in state-of-the-art semiconductor lasers, limiting their coherence, and their suitability for high-speed communication and sensing applications. This proposal aims to develop ultra-high coherence semiconductor lasers on the Silicon/III-V platform with a quantum linewidth of

On-site activated decontaminants will revolutionize chemical and biological decon because the activated solution is produced on demand, without the limitations of traditional pre-made mixtures. TDAs system uses electrical activation to convert battery power into reactive chemicals that quickly destroy chemical and biological warfare agents. Prior to activation, the decontaminant mixture can be saf ...

Micro-RDC has developed portable radiation effects test structures that scale to new process nodes.These structures will enable the investigation of the effects of radiation on the new technology from the material processing level as well as the circuit level.Fabricating the chosen structures and the refinement of software to extract the model parameters will be completed in this effort.A suite of ...

Approximately 5-6% of military injuries involve some form of major peripheral nerve injury that has little chance of spontaneous healing. Currently these injuries lead to major impairment of voluntary muscle function in the limbs and extremities, making tasks of walking, reaching, grasping, etc. very difficult or impossible for many patients. Focusing therapeutic treatments to segmental nerve in ...

Zeteo Tech in strong and enduring partnership with University of Maryland will develop a toxin detection and identification system for field use. The system will incorporate a low cost, disposable device for toxin capture and MALDI sample preparation. The output of the disposable device will be input assays for enhanced detection and identification.

In this topic, we plan to design a vital EMF sensor to work under any conditions. The sensor will be integrated with smart clothing and using e-textile materials.
