Systems and techniques for navigation in a GPS-denied environment that do not rely on locations of known points. Instead, the operator can measure distance and/or inclination as well as azimuth to arbitrary points on the visual horizon (or sub-horizon) from their location. These observations can then be compared to precomputed distances and inclinations for corresponding azimuths to the visual horizon of a grid of points based on known surface terrain data. The closest grid point to the observer's location obtained in this way can be refined using a model of the surrounding environment, allowing for the operators position to be quickly and accurately determined.

Energy absorbing structures for underbody blast protection
The present technology regards a de-coupled V-hull structure for use with an armored vehicle, and energy absorbing crush elements suitable for mounting the V-hull structure in a de-coupled manner to the vehicle. The energy absorbing V-hull structure includes a sloped armor structure forming a cavity having a v-shaped cross-section and a plurality of reinforcing elements, including a backbone, hull stiffeners and lateral supports. The elements are coupled together and supported by energy absorber mounts, extending along each side of the structure. Crush elements suitable for decoupling the V-hull structure are also disclosed, having a uniquely designed housing, a plurality of plates positioned within the housing, and affixation means for securing the crush element to the underside of the vehicle and to the top of the V-hull structure.
B62D 21/15 - Understructures, i.e. chassis frame on which a vehicle body may be mounted having impact absorbing means, e.g. a frame designed to permanently or temporarily change shape or dimension upon impact with another body
Systems and methods are provided for modeling electromagnetic properties of an assembly. The system includes a modeling component configured to divide the assembly into a plurality of subdomains, with each subdomain representing a three-dimensional volume of the assembly, and determine a set of standard elemental basis functions for each subdomain, such that a linear combination of elemental basis functions represents the electromagnetic properties of a portion of the geometry of the subdomain. A synthetic function generator is configured to generate a set of synthetic “entire-domain” basis functions for each subdomain from its set of elemental basis functions. A response characterization component is configured to determine the electromagnetic properties of the assembly from the sets of synthetic basis functions for each subdomain and an excitation matrix representing simulated incident electrical and magnetic stimulation to the assembly.
A system and method for providing dry cooling of a source liquid, having a plurality of heat exchangers which depolymerize and polymerize a polymer. Specifically, the depolymerization process is endothermic and draws heat from a source liquid in a first heat exchanger, and the polymerization process is exothermic and expels heat from a second heat exchanger. Additional heat exchangers and holding tanks may be incorporated in the system and method. In some embodiments the system further provides additional cooling of the polymer prior to depolymerization using cooler night ambient air.
