Abstract Modern weapon systems can have thousands of wiring circuit paths as well as multiple complex electronic LRUs/WRAs. Frequent handling, maintenance actions, aging, and extreme operational environments can all cause progressive deterioration of the performance of wiring systems and LRU/WRA circuit paths. These result in solid-state opens or shorts, premature failures of a system, degradation …
Abstract Corrosion costs the DoD over $20 billion annually and has a measurable and significant impact on system availability and directly causes, or is a factor in, many safety mishaps. The purpose of this forum is to exchange information on the structure and activities of the OSD and Military Department-level corrosion prevention and control (CPC) …
ABSTRACT The introduction of robotic repair solutions to maintenance activities and facilities can enhance maintenance effectiveness and improve the safety of our workforce. In recognition of the value of robotics to U.S. businesses, academia, and government, the DoD established in 2017 the Advanced Robotics for Manufacturing (ARM) Innovation Hub as the eighth DoD-led institute. ARM …
Abstract The threats facing DoD’s unclassified information have dramatically increased as we provide more services online, digitally store data and rely on contractors for a variety of information technology services. It is absolutely critical to establish effective cybersecurity measures while developing, testing, and transitioning new innovations within the DoD. However, it is also extremely important …
