Air Force/Army 10-watt UHF radio, has been subjected to an extensive Life-Cycle-Cost Verification Test to determine whether the radio meets its specified reliability and maintainability criteria. This paper deals with the entire spectrum of the ARC-164 LCC Program, with emphasis on up-to-date ...
Elastic thermobarometry was developed decades ago (Rosenfeld and Chase 1961), but its use has rapidly increased in the past decade because Raman spectroscopy now provides a relatively straightforward, low-cost approach to measuring residual pressures preserved by solid mineral inclusions (e.g., Nas...
Herein, we developed an original and cost-efficient technology that combines pulsed arc evaporation (PAE) and electro-spark deposition (ESD) in vacuum to fabricate two-layer coatings in a single technological run using the same electrode. Two-layer PAE/ESD coatings have several advantages over thei...
The AN/ARC-164 PAVE RADIO program objective was to minimize life cycle cost by acquiring a highly reliable and easily maintainable radio. The Life Cycle Cost Verification Test (LCCVT) was used to compare logistics parameters proposed prior to contract award with parameters demonstrated in later ...
