GEO-CENTERS, INC. PROPOSES TO DEMONSTRATE THE FEASIBILITY OF USING A NEURAL NETWORK TO ANALYZE SEISMIC DATA TO CLASSIFY EARTHQUAKES, NUCLEAR BLASTS, AND CHEMICAL BLASTS. USING TIME AND FREQUENCY DOMAIN INFORMATION FROM IDENTIFIED PHASES A NEURAL NETWORK WILL BE TAUGHT USING DATA AVAILABLE FROM THE CENTER FOR SEISMIC STUDIES. A MULTILAYER NEURAL NETWORK WILL BE EMPLOYED HAVING AN INPUT LAYER, A HID ...

IN SUPPORT OF THE AIR FORCE SPACE DIVISION OPERATIONS, GEO-CENTERS, INC. PROPOSES THE DEVELOPMENT OF A UNIQUE DOSIMETER INCORPORATING BOTH A PASSIVE COLORMETRIC ELEMENT AND AN OPTICAL SENSOR. THE DOSIMETER ALLOWS CONTINUOUS REAL TIME PASSIVE MONITORING WHILE THE OPTICAL SENSOR ALLOWS THE INCORPORATION OF AN AUDIO ALARM SYSTEM. GEO-GENTERS, INC. PROPOSES A PHASE I EFFORT TO DESIGN AND DEMONSTRATE I ...

THE DEVELOPMENT OF A HIGHLY RELIABLE, LOW DRIFT, FIBER OPTIC HYDROSTATIC PRESSURE SENSOR FOR SONAR DOMES IS PROPOSED. THE SENSOR IS BASED ON THE ELASTO-OPTIC EFFECT IN OPTICAL CRYSTALS. THE SENSING ELEMENT IS AN OPTICAL CRYSTAL, AND BECAUSE NO MOVING PARTS ARE INVOLVED, WEAR AND FATIGUE ARE REDUCED TO A MINIMUM. BECAUSE OF ITS INHERENT LINEARITY AND LOW DRIFT, THE PROPOSED PRESSURE SENSOR WILL BE ...

GEO-CENTERS, INC. PROPOSES TO DESIGN, FABRICATE AND EVALUATE AN INTEGRATED TEST BED FOR THE DEMONSTRATION AND EVALUATION OF THE TECHNICAL ELEMENTS REQUIRED FOR A HUNTER/KILLER COUNTERMINE SYSTEM. SUCH A SYSTEM REQUIRES INTEGRATION OF DIVERSE TECHNOLOGIES INCLUDING MULTIPLE SENSOR AND DETECTION ALGORITHMS, REMOTE CONTROL AND NEUTRALIZATION TECHNOLOGY WHICH HAVE NOT PREVIOUSLY BEEN COMBINED IN A SIN ...

GEO-CENTERS, INC. PROPOSES TO DESIGN, DEVELOP AND TEST AN ACTIVE, 3-AXIS MAGNETIC SIGNATURE REDUCTION SYSTEM CAPABLE OF CANCELING MAGNETIC SIGNATURES OF MECHANICAL/ELECTRICAL SYSTEMS TO LEVELS BELOW THAT SEEN BY MAGNETIC INFLUENCE MINES AT DISTANCES OF TENS OF FEET. THE ULTIMATE SYSTEM WILL INVOLVE NUMBERS OF INDIVIDUAL REDUCTION SYSTEMS CONSISTING OF THREE SINGLE AXIS MAGNETIC SENSOR PAIRS COUPLE ...

THE GOAL OF THE PHASE I PROGRAM IS TO DEMONSTRATE THE UTILITY OF GEO-CENTERS FIBER OPTIC DIFFERENTIAL STRAIN GAUGE FOR MONITORING THE DYNAMIC STRAINS IN CONTAINERS OF PULSED CAPACITORS AND TRANSFORMERS. THE FAILURE OF PULSED CAPACITORS AND TRANSFORMERS UNDER ROUTING OPERATING CONDITIONS PRESENTS A SERIOUS PROBLEM TO PULSED POWER SYSTEM DEVELOPMENT. COMPONENT FAILURE IMPACTS BOTH THE COST AND SAFET ...

THE WORK DESCRIBED IN THIS PROPOSAL IS GEARED TOWARD UNDERSTANDING THE CATALYTIC ACTIVITY OF -N(4) MARCROCYCLIC MONONUCLEAR AND BINUCLEAR COMPLEXES OF COBALT AND RUTHENIUM AND MANGANESE. A TUNGSTEN COMPLEX WILL ALSO BE TESTED. THE RESULTS ARE EXPECTED TO THROW LIGHT ON THE ELECTROCATALYSIS OF SOCL(2) REDUCTION AS INFLUENCED BY (A) THE NATURE OF THE METAL CENTERS, (B) A COMMON REDBOX COUPLE DUE TO ...
