Defense's Nuclear Agency, 1947-1997, traces the development of the Armed Forces Special Weapons Project (AFSWP), and its descendant government organizations, from its original founding in 1947 to 1997. After the disestablishment of the Manhattan Engineering District (MED) in 1947, AFSWP was formed to provide military training in nuclear weapons' operations. Over the years its sequential descendant organizations have been the Defense Atomic Support Agency (DASA) from 1959 to 1971, the Defense...

This thesis presents an application of Multidimensional Scaling (MDS) used in the prioritization of ASW decision functions in the S-3A. The ASW decision space was divided into 14 discrete decision functions for the purposes of this analysis. The problem of developing a prioritization methodology was approached from two independent directions. First, an unconstrained sorting task was preformed to provide input to Multidimensional Scaling algorithm. The result of this analysis provided a three...

This thesis has set up a model of policy development and used the model in examining two case studies. The model used is not new or original to this text. The attempt in this work is to show how the president and congress interact throughout the policy process and what effect this interaction has on the policy itself. In the area of public policy the studies conducted fall into two categories. First, authors have singled out one stage of the policy process and attempted to draw conclusions...

By August 1944, the Allies had broken out of the Normandy beachhead and were rapidly exploiting a breakthrough in the German lines. In early August, Hitler ordered a heavy single pronged attack to the west to cut off the US forces to the south. Bradley recognized this as an opportunity to encircle the German Army in France. By turning Patton's Third Army, in the south, north towards Argentan, Bradley formed the lower jaw of a pincer movement while Montgomery ordered Crerar's First Canadian Army...

It is of special interest in this contract to develop analytical tools which indicate circuit values in the construction of an all-fluid system, and which then predict its operating characteristics. In short, a circuit theory is to be formulated. An n-stage binary counter is selected for analysis, the foundations of which are the analogous equations of fluid flow and electrical...

Research and analysis revealed the Axis offensive against the United States during World War II failed due to the lack of a campaign plan to guide it. The Axis leadership correctly identified U.S. centers of gravity and had the capability to strike them, yet they failed to unify their effort or allocate adequate resources to the offensive. Finally, they failed to act while the opportunity existed in early 1942. The study of this offensive yields many implications for the United States today....

Rapid response to a high-speed, low-altitude, incoming missile imposes very stringent design requirements upon an air-defense missile. A successful solution has been devised by using a Jet-Vane Control (JVC) System for rapid launch maneuvering, minimizing weight penalties by using actuation elements of other missile components and making the jet-vane assembly detachable. A JVC System and method is illustrated for a surface air defense missile in which the system is compact, rugged, lightweight,...

In this paper, a new modeling methodology to characterize failure processes in Time-Sharing systems due to hardware transients and software errors is summarized. The basic assumption made is that the instantaneous failure rate of a system resource can be approximated by a deterministic function of time plus a zero-mean stationary Gaussian process, both depending on the usage of the resource considered. The probability density function of the time to failure obtained under this assumption has a...
