Research abstract

The Army requires operational infrastructure to function in austere environments and the capabilities to maintain the functionality of equipment and facilities while in the field. Corrosion repair and prevention is a significant challenge, especially in tropical and sub-tropical environments. Modula-S will develop a modular, rapidly deployable solution for the Armyĺs need to repair and prevent corrosion in the field. Modula-S has designed and tested ultra-efficient NetZero modular buildings. We are adapting this technology to build and test an innovative battery deployment system in collaboration with Seimens (SBIR A234-P010-1359). Relying on our expertise from these projects, we will design plans for a Tricon/Bicon ISO system of connectable modules for corrosion prevention, repair components, coating materials, and pressurized systems. These modules will be designed using our proprietary R-60 building envelope technology to maximize passive energy performance and interface with the power generation module from our current SBIR.As the key part of the building envelope system, Modula-S has developed a proprietary R-60, 6ö thin, lightweight, super-insulation technology. Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (LLNL) tested and validated our technology independently. With the most recent data from our complete building test at the Cold Regions Research andá Engineering Laboratory (CRREL) in Fairbanks, Alaska, and at AFCEC Tyndall AFB, Florida, our thermal technology performance is fully field-tested and verified. We integrate this proprietary technology with smart building systems to design an optimal building envelope that can regulate internal temperature and humidity to maximize the life cycle performance of any contained components. The envelope helps protect components from vibration stress and the smart systems can monitor conditions during transit. Our Tricon/Bicon ISO system will use this building envelope technology to house the complete sets of components for our Corrosion Care Container SustainmentBox solution.3 Tricon or 2 Bicon units can be linked together, or split off for individual mission purposes. The Tricons and Bicons can be made mobile by being mounted on a dedicated trailer and moved as needed. Transportation will be provided by any available container transport system, and individual Tricons can be moved via standard 10,000 lbs. forklifts. Replacement units for any Tricons or Bicons can be sent as needed to resupply expendable supplies or provide more equipment. The whole system is modular to provide the most flexibility possible. Together, they will repair the effects of sun, salt, sand, and sea.
