A business case analysis of the Hard Target Void Sensing Fuze (HTVSF) Joint Capability Technology Demonstration (JCTD)
(Monterey, California. Naval Postgraduate School, 2008-12)
10000 psi concrete. The purpose of this study is to analyze the cost savings and the benefits of implementing the HTVSF capability. This thesis will conduct a business case analysis, including a baseline analysis and ...
Defense against rocket attacks in the presence of false cues
(Monterey, California. Naval Postgraduate School, 2008-12)
nder is using a sensor that is subject to false positive detections.
A methodological approach for conducting a business case analysis of Zephyr Joint Capability Technology Demonstration (JCTD)
(Monterey California. Naval Postgraduate School, 2008-12)
Zephyr, a high altitude long endurance (HALE) solar powered, unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) is thus identified as a Joint Capability Technology Demonstration (JCTD) candidate. This program is managed by the Office of ...
On some Markovian Salvo combat models
(Monterey California. Naval Postgraduate School, 2008-12)
In this thesis, we present Markov-based probability models for two important problems related to current combat situations: fire allocating of salvos against multiple targets, and Improvised Explosive Devices (IED) attacks ...
Efficient employment of adaptive sensor
(Monterey California. Naval Postgraduate School, 2008-12)
We consider a sensor that is subject to false positive and false negative errors. The sensor searches for stationary threat objects such as ballistic missile launchers or improvised explosive devices. The objects are located ...
Determination of cost drivers for Ship Operations (1B1B) consumable (SO) operations target accounts for Amphibious Assault ships
(Monterey California. Naval Postgraduate School, 2008-12)
This thesis conducts an analysis of Amphibious Assault ships consumable ship's OPTAR disbursements for the period of 1 July 2007 to 30 April 2008. Regression analysis was used to test for a statistical relationship among ...
Breaking barriers to design dimensions in nearly orthogonal Latin hypercubes
(Monterey California. Naval Postgraduate School, 2008-12)
A dynamic and extremely complex landscape in security and world events presents problems that challenge all sectors of society to develop efficient means for exploring a wide range of solutions. Similarly, exponential ...
The effects of terrain on a system of systems
(Monterey, California. Naval Postgraduate School, 2008-12)
Modern combat operations are predominantly joint or combined arms, in which different forces and weapon systems come together to fight as a single entity - as a system composed of many different systems. For land forces, ...
Exploring first responder tactics in a terrorist chemical attack
(Monterey, California. Naval Postgraduate School, 2008-12)
The use of agent-based simulation (ABS) allows government emergency planners to analyze urban counterterrorist operations and observe environmental behaviors that may not obviously demonstrate themselves in live simulation. ...
Littoral combat vessels analysis and comparison of designs
(Monterey, California. Naval Postgraduate School, 2008-09)
The introduction of new technologies force navies to adapt and the introduction of surface-to-surface anti-ship cruise missiles from a large number of small coastal combatants created vulnerability in the Navy's force ...
