Abstract:INTENSE, FINELY-FOCUSSED ION BEAMS WOULD FIND MANY APPLICATIONS IN RESEARCH AND PRODUCTION IF SUFFICIENTLY BRIGHT ION SOURCES COULD BE MADE. THE PROPOSED RESEARCH IS AN INVESTIGATION OF THE FEASIBILITY OF A CONCEPT FOR AN EXTREMELY BRIGHT ION SOURCE WHEREIN AN INTENSE SUPERSONIC MOLECULAR BEAM IS… more
Abstract:A SYSTEM IDENTIFICATION TECHNICAL IS PROPOSED FOR NON-DESTRUCTIVE TEST TO DETECT UNBOUNDS IN LARGE BONDED COMPONENTS. THE TECHNIQUE USES THE SYSTEM'S TIME RESPONSE DATA DUE TO RANDOM INPUT EXCITATION. SYSTEM'S EIGENVALUES AND EIGENVECTORS ARE RETRIEVED FROM THE TIME RESPONSES AND USED FOR THE… more
Abstract:METHODS ARE DESPERATELY NEEDED TO DISCERN THE STRUCTURAL INTEGRITY OF CRITICAL COMPONENTS OF WEAPON SYSTEMS SUCH AS PRESSURE VESSEL CASES. AT THIS TIME, NO TECHNIQUE EXISTS WHICH PERMITS A GLOBAL MONITORING OF THE OPERATIONAL READINESS OF ANY STRUCTURES, INCLUDING COMPOSITE MOTOR CASES. THE… more
Abstract:THE TECHNICAL OBJECTIVE OF THE PROPOSED RESEARCH IS TO DETERMINE THE EXTENT TO WHICH LANGUAGE INSTRUCTION CAN BE IMPLEMENTED AND ENHANCED BY THE EMERGING CAPABILITIES OF COMPUTER SYSTEMS PROVIDING PERSONALIZATION, MULTIMEDIA PRESENTATION, AND A HIGH DEGREE OF HUMAN/MACHINE INTERACTION. IF SUCCESSFUL… more
Abstract:THERE IS A CONSTANT NEED FOR LESS COSTLY AIRCRAFT ALTITUDE SENSORS, FOR WHICH LARGE NUMBERS OF THESE SENSORS ARE REQUIRED. THE PROPOSED PROGRAM IS TO PERFORM STUDIES LEADING TO THE DEVELOPMENT OF A SURFACE ACOUSTIC WAVE (SAW) ALTITUDE SENSOR FOR AVIONICS AIR-DATA INSTRUMENTATION. THE OBJECTIVE OF… more
Abstract:CURRENTLY, AIRLINE AND MILITARY AIRSPACE USERS DO NOT HAVE COORDINATED NOR CONSISTENT METHODS OF GENERATING FLIGHT PLANS (PRE-FLIGHT ROUTE STRUCTURE DEFINITION). SOME USE ANTIQUATED METHODS OF ROUTE GENERATION. SOME USE WEATHER DATA OVER 24 HOURS OLD. NONE ACCOUNT FOR THE POSSIBLE EXISTENCE OF AN… more
Abstract:THE DOD HAS EXPRESSED INTEREST IN A LOW-COST, PASSIVE, SIMPLE, AND SMALL DEVICE OR TECHNIQUE THAT WOULD ALLOW QUANTITATIVE ASSESSMENT OF PEAK ACCELERATION ACHIEVED DURINGAN AIR CRASH. THESE DEVICES WOULD BE PLACED IN ALL SERVICE AIRCRAFT AND, IN THE EVENT OF A CRASH, COULD BE USED TO COR-RELATE… more
Abstract:PROJECTILE PULSE GENERATOR (PPG) HAS BEEN CONCEIVED TO SATISFY ANTICIPLATED AIR FORCE REQUIREMENTS. THE PPG IS EXPLOSIVELY DRIVEN AND IS INTENDED TO MEET THE REQUIRMENTS STIPULATED IN THE SBIR
Abstract:TRANSMISSION LINE DESIGN IS OFTEN GOVERNED BY THE NEED TO RESIST THE HIGH LONGITUDINAL LOADS IMPOSED BY A LINE BREAK. THIS RARE EVENT REQUIRES TOWERS MUCH STRONGER (AND MORE COSTLY) THAN NEEDED FOR NORMAL SERVICE. FURTHER, FAILURE TO RESIST A LINE BREAK CAN LEAD TO EXTREMELY COSTLY "ZIPPER" TYPE… more
Abstract:A BLAST OVERPRESSURE DOSIMETER CONCEPT WILL BE STUDIED TO ASCERTAIN ITS FEASIBILITY FOR GENERAL USE AS AN INDIVIDUAL PROTECTIVE DEVICE. FEASIBILITY TESTING WILL BE PERFORMED IN THE CONTRACTOR'S FACILITY, USING A SHOTGUN TO GENERATE THE BLAST WAVES. THE BLAST OVERPRESSURE FIELD WILL BE MAPPED WITH… more
Abstract:THE OBJECTIVE OF THIS DEVELOPMENTAL EFFORT IS TO DETERMINE THE FEASIBILITY OF DEVELOPING A COMPUTER INTEGRATED ROBOT WORK CELL GAGING FINISHED PARTS OR OTHER ASSEMBLY/MACHINING OPERATIONS. THE FOCUS OF THE RESEARCH IS TO CONTROL THE ROBOT TOOL CONTROL POINT (TCP) THROUGH AN ADAPTIVE FEEDBACK CONTROL… more
Abstract:THE OBJECTIVE OF THIS DEVELOPMENT IS TO DETERMINE THE TECHNICAL FEASIBILITY OF DEVELOPING A THREE DIMENSIONAL VISION BASED PASSIVE OBJECT RECOGNITION SYSTEM CAPABLE OF GENERATING THREE DIMENSIONAL COORDINATE LOCATION INFORMATION IN REAL TIME AT VIDEO FRAME RATES OF 30 FRAMES PER SECOND. THE SYSTEM… more
Abstract:THE DOD SOFTWARE INITIATIVE CLEARLY IDENTIFIED THE CHALLENGES FOR FUTURE SYSTEMS. THEY WILL HAVE TO BE LARGER AND MORE COMPLEX, DEVELOPED AND DELIVERED MORE RAPIDLY, AND MAINTAINED OVER LONGER PERIODS. TRADITIONAL PROGRAMMING TECHNIQUES, HOWEVER, APPEAR TO HAVE REACHED THEIR LIMITS, MAKING MUCH… more
Abstract:DESIGN OF EFFECTIVE MAN-MACHINE INTERFACES (MMI) IS CRITICAL TO THE OPERATIONAL EFECTIVENESS OF INTERACTIVE COMPUTER SYSTEMS. UNFORTUNATELY, MMI DESIGN FLAWS USUALLY ARE NOT UNCOVERED UNTIL LATE IN THE IMPLEMENTATION PHASE WHEN THEIR CORRECTION IS VERY EXPENSIVE OR IMPOSSIBLE. RAPID PROTOTYPING… more
Abstract:THE OBJECTIVE OF THIS RESEARCH IS TO STUDY THE FEASIBILITY OF APPLYING ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE TECHNOLOGY TO THE DERIVATION OF SPACECRAFT DATA SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS FROM USER SCENARIOS. DURING PHASE I THE RESEARCH WILL BE DIRECTED TOWARD THE DEVELOPMENT OF A FORMAL NOTATION FOR THE EXPRESSION OF… more
Abstract:COMPUTER TECHNOLOGY ASSOCIATES (CTA) PROPOSES TO INVESTIGATE THE REQUIREMENTS FOR A PROFESSIONAL WORKSTATION TO BE USED BY ENGINEERS AT WRIGHT-PATTERSON, TO DEFINE ALTERNATIVES FOR MIGRATION OF MICRO COMPUTERS INTO PROFESSIONAL WORKSTATIONS, AND TO RECOMMEND A PLAN FOR IMPLEMENTING THIS MIGRATION.… more
Abstract:AN INVESTIGATION IS PROPOSED THAT WILL EXAMINE THE PROBLEMS ASSOCIATED WITH THE GROWTH OF HIGH QUALITY A1GAAS/GAAS SUPERLATTICS IN METALORGANIC EPITAXIAL REACTORS. THE TECHNICAL APPROACH WILL BE TO SELECT THE MOST PROMISING ADVANCES MADE IN THIS FIELD AND INTEGRATE THEM INTO A SINGLE ADVANCED DESIGN… more
There are several categories such as “By Agency”, “By Year”, “By State” etc.
Select a checkbox within a category to refine your search results.
Each of your selections is listed in the “Narrow Search Filters” bar. You can uncheck these selections to remove them.
Search for Either Criteria
When you select multiple values within a category, the results will include values that match either of the selections.
For example, selecting “2005” and “2007” in the “By Year” category will display results that include either 2005 OR 2007 in the results.
Narrowing the Search Results
You can refine your search results across categories. To narrow down your results, select multiple values across different categories. The results will only include values that match the selections across the categories.
For example, selecting “2005” in the “By Year” category and “NASA” in the “By Agency” category will only display the results that contain both “2005” AND “NASA” in the results.
