Abstract: THERE IS LITTLE DATA CONCERNING WATER CONSUMPTION BY INDIVIDUAL FARM ANIMALS. THE OBJECTIVES OF THIS PROJECT ARE TO DESIGN AND CONSTRUCT A PROTOTYPE WATERING SYSTEM WHICH CAN MEASURE AND RECORD INDIVIDUAL WATER CONSUMPTION IN GROUP-FED ANIMALS. A COMMERCIALLY AVAILABLE WATERER WILL BE ADAPTED OR A… more
Company: A.i. Technology Inc Agency/Program/Year/Phase: DOD / SBIR / 1987 / 1
Abstract: A NEW DESIGN CONCEPT FOR ELECTRONIC SHELTERS USING SOME OF THE ADVANCED MATERIALS SUCH AS CONDUCTIVE COMPOSITES, AND REINFORCED CONDUCTIVE SILICONE FABRICS WILL BE TESTED. THE MOST RELEVENT APPLICATION PARAMETERS SUCH AS CONDUCTIVITY OF THE COMPOSITES AND FABRICS, THE JOINING MECHANISM TO ENSURE… more
Company: A.i. Technology Inc Agency/Program/Year/Phase: DOD / SBIR / 1987 / 1
Abstract: ALTHOUGH THERE ARE NO INTRINSIC CONFLICTS FOR THE SAME MATERIAL SYSTEMS TO ACHIEVE BOTH THE RADAR ABSORPTION AND THERMAL SUPPRESSION CHARACTERISTICS THERE EXISTS NO COMMERCIAL PRODUCT THAT HAS THE DESIRED DUAL PROPERTIES. A THEORETICAL CALCULATION ON THE FEASIBILITY OF SEVERAL PROPOSED MATERIAL… more
Company: A.i. Technology Inc Agency/Program/Year/Phase: DOD / SBIR / 1987 / 1
Abstract: A POLYIMIDE BASED POLYMER ALLOY IS PROPOSED TO BE USED AS THE MATRIX FOR A QUARTZ FILLED MULTILAYER CIRCUIT BOARD. POLYIMIDE WHICH HAS THERMAL EXPANSION COEFFICIENT (TEC) OF 30 PPM/DEG C IS SUBSTANTIATLY LOWER THAN THAT OF EPOXY (50-60 PPM/ DEG C). THE POLYMER ALLOY WHICH CONSISTS OF RIGID-RODLIKE… more
Company: Airspace Technology Corp Agency/Program/Year/Phase: DOD / SBIR / 1987 / 1
Abstract: FUTURE MILITARY AIR TRAFFIC CONTROL (ATC) SYSTEMS WILL USE TECHNOLOGIES SIGNIFICANTLY ADVANCED OVER TODAY'S EQUIPMENTS. THE SYSTEM WILL BE PASSIVE IN THAT THEY WILL USE AIRCRAFT DERIVED POSITION DATA IN LIEU OF PRIMARY AND SECONDARY RADAR DATA. IT WILL BE HEAVILY RELIANT ON AUTOMATED AND… more
Company: Akm Associates, Inc. Agency/Program/Year/Phase: DOD / SBIR / 1987 / 1
Abstract: THE REQUIREMENT FOR A TRACKED VEHICLE AND A WHEELED VEHICLE INSTRUMENT PANEL (ALLOWING VARIATIONS FOR EACH) WILL BE MET, OPTIMALLY, WITH A SINGLE FLAT-PANEL DISPLAY DEVICE, MICROCONTROLLER AND SPECIFIC FIRMWARE FOR EACH CLASS OF APPLICATION OR INSTRUMENT. UTILIZING THE MOST APPROPRIATE DISPLAY… more
Company: Akm Associates, Inc. Agency/Program/Year/Phase: DOT / SBIR / 1987 / 1
Abstract: AN AIR-TRAFFIC FLOW MANAGEMENT (ATFM) TOOL BASED EITHER ON STRICT MATHEMATICAL FORMULATION AND OPTIMIZATION, AND/OR ONEBASED ON HEURISTIC KNOWLEDGE ABOUT DISTRIBUTING THE FLOW OVER THE NETWORK MAY PROVIDE A SOLUTION TO THE PROBLEM, PERHAPS MUCH BETTER AND OBJECTIVE THAN THE ONE MADE PRESENTLY BY A… more
