Polybenzoxazole fibers (PBO, commercially trademarked as Zylon) were once used as an alternative to ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) fibers in body armor systems. PBO fibers exhibit a high Young’s modulus, excellent thermal stability, and tensile strength (nearly twice that of Kevlar), but the physical properties severely degrade when exposed to water. Hydrophobic polymer coatings were applied to PBO fibers and studied for moisture resistance, coating durability, and...

Requirements for test and evaluation in the weapons system acquisition process have become increasingly formalized and management of the test and evaluation activities has become more centralized, particularly with the formation of the Major Range and Test Facility Base and establishment of the Uniform Funding Policy. Management of the Navy portion of the Major Range and Test Facility Base has been delegated to the Naval Air Systems Command Test and Evaluation Group; however, most of the use of...

The antisubmarine warfare (ASW) capability of the air arms of western navies depends upon their ability to employ air-dropable sonobuoys for the detection and localization of enemy submarines. The systems which process the acoustic information from these sonobuoys are sophisticated spectrum analyzers. A constant effort to improve performance has led to frequent updates to existing systems and the periodic development of completely new processors. Assessing the significance of these improvements...

This thesis examines the Department of the Navy's Research, Development, Test and Evaluation organization, missions, goals, program structure, and budget process, with particular emphasis on the weapons systems test and evaluation community. It also examines the current and future DoD budget climate, to include overall Defense, DoN, RDT&E and T&E budget projections through FY1995. The aggregate impact of Congressional budget actions, investment strategies, endstrength reductions, and...

Decision analysis methodology was applied to the problem of some project management trade-off decisions required for the Patrol Frigate (PF) Land Based Test Sites (LETS). In particular, the question of whether to install or simulate the Mark 92 mod 2 fire control system, the AN/SPS-49 radar and LM 2500 gas turbine engine at the LBTS was studied. The necessary decision analysis methodology required to formulate and solve the problem was presented. The results of this thesis indicated that the...

This thesis provides a comparative analysis of ship Operational Test and Evaluation (OT&E) in the United States Navy (USN) and the Royal Australian Navy (RAN). It also reviews the acceptance and introduction into service procedures for warships in both Navies, including the input from OT&E. This study analyzes USN and RAN Ship OT&E organisation, policy and procedures, and then compares and contrasts the two systems. The study finds that the RAN OT&E system, although originally...

This thesis investigates the relationship between Washington based Project Managers and a Test and Evaluation (T&E) facility, the Pacific Missile Test Center (PMTC). Five areas of the relationship are examined. First, the formal weapon system acquisition process as prescribed by current directives is presented as an overview. Next, the Pacific Missile Test Center organization is analyzed. This is followed by an investigation of funding techniques, and specifically, those employed by PMTC....

The purpose of this thesis is to analyze the application of Modeling and Simulation (M&S) within the Army Operational Test and Evaluation (OT&E) process in support of weapon systems acquisition. This thesis considers the Army's current acquisition process, M&S technologies, infrastructure, and policies that guide the Program Manager (PM) in the application of modeling and simulation in operational testing. An analysis of the potential strengths and weaknesses of M&S in...

The objective of this thesis is to address the idea of implementing a viable T&F technique at the early stages of DT&E in order to reduce design discrepancies and minimize acquisition costs and time. The technique involves integration of Task Analysis, Operator Interviews and Link Analysis to evaluate a system's Functional Mock-up. The techniques will, therefore, be referred to as Integrtion Analysis thoughtout this paper. In orderto provide a measure of its contributions, it will be...

The objective of this thesis is to determine if a mainframe computer Automated Information System (AIS) can be simulated on a conventional microcomputer. To this end, the topical areas of software, hardware, the simulation development lifecycle, and systems testing and evaluation are explored in-depth. The purpose of this in-depth subject area examination is to demonstrate the tradeoffs and decision points encountered in the systems management lifecycle. Recommendations based upon these...

This thesis examines external environmental assessments conducted at three DoD test centers. It finds that these assessments are not as well developed as they could be and that only superficial examinations of the organizations opportunities and threats have been attempted. Recommendations for improving the test centers external environmental assessments as part of their Strategic Planning and management efforts are offered

This thesis addresses Technology Transfer as it might be applied in a Test and Evaluation (T & E) activity for weapons systems and components within the Federal Government. Factors associated with the Technology Transfer process, aids and barriers to Technology Transfer, the innovative and creative processes, and managerial requirements for Technology Transfer are related to the job of an engineering manager in a T & E organization. From the relationships, a Paradigm for action for...

This thesis addresses the Test and Evaluation process and demonstrates, through application of a dynamic systems model, that the Test and Evaluation process is a conglomerate of lower-order systems. Each system can be characteristically analyzed by focusing on objectives, inputs/outputs, interfaces, environmental, and effectiveness dimensions. Hence the systems approach to management is suggested as a paradigm for the test and Evaluation process. This approach provides a systematic way of...

This thesis evaluates the Navy's test and evaluation (T&E) process for air-launched guided missiles, identifies T&E management problems, and proposes utilization of a particular test program strategy. Many changes have been made to improve the T&E process, but some of these have resulted in costly inefficiencies. Contributing problems include: the operational test agencies do not participate adequately in early test planning, excess duplication exists in testing done by major...

The energy cost of carrying loads of 15 and 45 pounds in five different distributions, has been studied on a horizontal, motor-driven treadmill maintained at 3.5 mph. The hypothesis that extra energy is required for accelerating and decelerating loads that are attached to body parts which undergo rapid changes in velocity during walking has received support from the findings of this study. The feasibility of loads balanced fore and aft on the upper thorax is suggested. Measurements of pulmonary...

The concept test fairness has developed only recently. A major impetus in the development and application of the concept has come from the publication of the Uniform Guidelines on Employee Selection Procedures (UGES) in 1978. The UGES are interpreted as mandating the use of a regression model in evaluating test fairness. A technique was developed utilizing a regression for the groups identified by the UGES: Blacks, American Indians, Asians, Hispanics, Caucasians and females. The regression of...
