Fiber & Sensor Technologies (F&S), teaming with Virginia Tech, proposes to develop an adaptive control system for cure of thermoset resins during manufacture and repair of polymer matrix composites. Leveraging DOD-sponsored development of fiber optic cure monitor sensors, F&S will develop an embeddable "sensor string" by multi-plexing pressure, temperature, and viscosity sensors on a single optic ...

Implementation of Federal Acquisition Streamlining Act of 1994 set into motion a series of changes requiring Government use of Electronic Data Interchange (EDI). Small businesses can use EDI to acquire contracts to $100,000. EDI is the transmission of unambiguous information of business significance between computer of independent organizations. EDI is the common "language" used to get informat ...

We will demonstrate the feasibility of a new type of airblast pressure sensor which will provide valid overpressure histories for airblast waves travelling in directions up to 90 degrees or more to the direction with which the sensor is aligned. Our specific technical objectives for Phase I are: 1) to develop a quantitative sensor design for assessment of feasibility, 2) to predict the expected p ...

Most E-O sensors operate in the visible and the near infrared. These sensors such as silicon and CCD arrays are very well developed resulting in high resolution and low cost. However, these sensors are limited to a spectral response of 900 to 1000nm. The mixing laser (MIXL) uses a non-linear material doped with lasing ions to create a self frequency summing or difference frequency mix ...
