Develop a concept for an end-to-end design of a redesigned ADC Mk 2 Mod 6 that meets the operational requirements of the current device, but only meets the environmental requirements for over-the-side shipboard launch, of which are noted in the description. Include, in the design, details of the modularized reconfiguration of the existing acoustic projector, electronics, and thermal lithium power ...

Modern deep learning-based face recognition systems perform at or above human levels on high quality frontal imagery, but their performance suffers significantly on more operationally relevant imagery with confounding factors such as extreme pose.  This performance degradation is based on two primary shortcomings: poor match between training and test-time image data, and failure to model inherent ...

The Synthetik Applied Technologies (Synthetik), Thornton Tomasetti (TT), and Saleria team are pleased to offer this proposal to develop a next generation Earth Covered Magazine (ECM) structure design using Composite Materials.  The Synthetik/TT/Saleria team possess the experience, capabilities, and facilities needed to successfully design, model, simulate, construct, test, and deliver a more modu ...

Response Technologies’ goal is to provide the DLA and the USAF with qualified self-sealing fuel cells for the A-10 aircraft platform. A bi-product of this effort will be proven tank constructions for other legacy aircraft and the future vertical lift. This Phase I’s effort spans three to six months and is characterized by identifying and documenting all requirements and test methods to qualify ...

The US Navy has a need for the repair of structural systems on the aging Ohio class submarines and Nimitz class carriers. Cold spray technology offers the opportunity to perform repairs at low temperature, therefore avoiding sensitization of the base materials and resulting in a more corrosion resistant repair. VRC Metal Systems proposes the development of a powder material and a structural repair ...

The objective of this efforts is to introduce new, improved knit technology to provide more comfortable knitwear for the Sailor by improving fit, increasing air permeability, wicking away moisture, reducing seams and chafing, reducing bulk, and providing the potential for increased protection (Flame Resistant (FR) and No Melt/No Drip) while reducing waste and saving time and money for the Governme ...

Via the utilization of an innovative and unique sensor technology integrated into military condition-based maintenance monitoring systems, our company proposes to assist the US Air Force to enhance its monitoring and modeling capabilities for the benefit of military assets corrosion analysis & maintenance. The AFRL states that “Knowing the concentrations of potential corrosive factors in a given ...

The primary objective of this contract is to qualify the four H-53K fuel cells using the Response Technologies’ process. The four H-53K fuel cells are 1) Fuel Cell, RH, Aft, 2) Fuel Cell, LH, Aft, Fuel Cell, RH, Fwd, and Fuel Cell, LH, Fwd.

Detecting counterfeit electronics is an important area of rising concern for DOD, other federal agencies and the private sector. The advent of cloned chips has called for development of new inspection tools that are capable of inspecting microelectronics down to the nanometer length scale. The state-of-the-art technology in Microscopy currently lacks a one-size-fits-all microelectronics inspection ...

Response Technologies (RT) intends to build upon its Phase I SBIR success, discussed in section 1.3 Related Work, by developing and demonstrating prototype fuel tank explosion suppression (FTES) materials capable of meeting MIL-PRF-87260B suppression capabilities, tear resistance, fuel and hydrolytic stability, and flammability requirements. When compared to the existing explosion suppression foam ...
