THE OVERALL GOAL OF THE PROPOSED RESEARCH IS TO SUPPORT THE NAVY SYSTEM ENGINEERING AND LOGISTIC PLANNING COMMUNITY WITH A RESPONSIVE COMPUTER-AIDED R&M DESIGN TOOL THAT USES COMPUTER-AIDED ACQUISITION AND LOGISTIC SUPPORT (CALS) COMPATIBLE DATA AND OPERATES IN A WORK STATION ENVIRONMENT. THE DEVELOPMENT OF THIS ON-LINE R&M DESIGN CAPABILITY DEMANDS ADVANCED CONCEPTS OF PROGRAM EXECUTION SPEED, US ...

WE PROPOSE AN IN-SITU OPTICAL FIBER ORGANIC MATRIX CURE/TEMPERATURE MONITOR WHICH ALLOWS ACCURATE DETERMINATION OF LOCALIZED STATE OF CURE DURING TYPICAL COMPOSITE FABRICATION PROCESSES. THE SYSTEM CONSISTS OF A RESIN FIBER WAVEGUIDE ENSOR WHICH MEASURES CHANGES OF REFRACTIVE INDEX AS THE RESIN CURES, AND A NON-SILICA CORE FIBER DISTRIBUTED TEMPERATURE SENSOR WHICH COMPENSATES FOR TEMPERATURE INDU ...

THE PROPOSED RESEARCH WILL DETERMINE THE FEASIBILITY OF COMBINING AN ORGANIC PHOSPHORUS COMPOUND SUCH AS IS CURRENTLY IN USE AS A FLAME RETARDANT WITH A NEWLY DEVELOPED DURABLE PRESS COMPOUND THAT HAS SEVERAL ADVANTAGES OVER THE CONVENTIONAL DIMETHYLOLDIHYDROXYETHYLENE UREA (DMDHEU) RESIN COMMONLY USED IN DURABLE PRESS COMPOUNDS. THE NEW COMPOUND HAS NOT, TO OUR KNOWLEDGE, BEEN EVALUATED IN CONJUN ...

THIRTY FOUR MILLION AMERICANS ARE AT LEAST 20 PERCENT OVER THEIR IDEAL WEIGHT. THE EXCESS WEIGHT HAS SERIOUS HEALTH IMPLICATIONS BECAUSE OBESITY HAS BEEN ASSOCIATED WITH PREMATURE MORTALITY. AT ANY POINT IN TIME, AS MANY AS 35 PERCENT OF ADULT AMERICANS ARE ATTEMPTING TO LOWER THEIR WEIGHT AT AN ANNUAL COST OF $5 BILLION. HEALTH INNOVATIONS, INC. WILL DEVELOP A WEIGHT MANAGEMENT PROGRAM THAT RELIE ...
