The use of concrete masonry walls in civilian and military buildings is one of the most common methods of construction. These wal ...http://www.ntis.gov/search/product.aspx?ABBR=ADA506175Advanced hybrid cooling loop technology has been developed for the high performance cooling systems for such as U.S. Army next generation vehicles, 'Future Combat System (FCS)' and Directed Energy Weapons (DEW), high power Solid State Laser Systems. ...http://www.ntis.gov/search/product.aspx?ABBR=ADA50576414. ABSTRACT This report summarize the analysis and cyclic testing of a laser welded steel sandwich panel end connection. Also included are monotonic tests of stake welded lap shear coupons with welds oriented both longitudinally and transverse. Stee ...http://www.ntis.gov/search/product.aspx?ABBR=ADA506077The Weapons Safety Division, Headquarters, Air Force Safety Center (HQAFSC/SEW) and Radiation Health Branch, USAF School of Aerospace Medicine (USAFSAM/OEHH) performed radiological scoping surveys on Boeing Michigan Aeronautical Research Center (BOMA ...http://www.ntis.gov/search/product.aspx?ABBR=ADA506016Doubly curved composite sandwich panels loaded by evenly distributed pressure were designed, analyzed, manufactured and tested. Quick and cost effective methods for making molds for vacuum infused doubly curved composites were studied and implemented ...http://www.ntis.gov/search/product.aspx?ABBR=ADA506070The ability of computer simulations to accurately resolve dynamic responses of systems has significantly improved over the last decade. Simulations can now be a trusted source of parametric evaluation of complex systems. DARPA funded a program to inv ...http://www.ntis.gov/search/product.aspx?ABBR=ADA505732The objective of project NCHRP-100A was to develop a galvanic mesh anode for bridge deck application. The concept was to develop an expanded mesh or perforated sheet that would last at least 25 years, be durable for construction, not interfere with c ...http://www.ntis.gov/search/product.aspx?ABBR=PB2010101385Curing has substantial effects on the long-term performance of Portland cement concrete (PCC) pavement. TxDOT requires two applications of curing compounds, with a maximum 180 sf/gal per each application. However, no compliance testing is conducted f ...http://www.ntis.gov/search/product.aspx?ABBR=PB2010101351High heat flux removal from devices such as Insulated-Gate Bipolar Transistor (IGBT) and Monolithic Microwave Integrated Circuit (MMIC) will be important for future Navy ships. Micro encapsulated phase change material (MEPCM) slurry was used as a hea ...http://www.ntis.gov/search/product.aspx?ABBR=ADA505991The purpose of this project is to establish and document a recommended methodology for reliably quantifying building system performance and response parameters for use in seismic design. A key parameter to be addressed is the response modification co ...http://www.ntis.gov/search/product.aspx?ABBR=PB2010101512An experimental study was conducted in which 37 reinforced concrete deep beam specimens were tested. The specimens are some of the largest deep beams ever tested in the history of shear research. The data from the experimental program and from a data ...http://www.ntis.gov/search/product.aspx?ABBR=PB2010101354Lightweight rigid-wall shelters used in mobile military operations are constructed of sandwich panels comprised of thin face sheets and thick, ultra light core materials to minimize weight and maximize structural integrity. However, such lightweight ...http://www.ntis.gov/search/product.aspx?ABBR=ADA505793
