The Development of a Full Architecture For High Performance Actuators For Navy Applications

Abstract

The research conducted under the auspices of this ONR Research Proposal represents a significant foundation for the development of high performance actuator systems. Collectively, this research addresses several major component technologies (Prime Movers, Sensors, and Software) within the actuator, as well as providing a foundation for the development of multi-criteria decision-making techniques to support actuator intelligence. Together, these technologies merit consideration for continued development and eventual inclusion in the development of SABBs to support future naval demands for high performance automation systems. Notably, while all of these reports describe promising technologies and approaches to the challenges facing automation systems, further research is required in numerous areas to realize their full potential as deployable components.
