Research abstract
Advances such as mid-air refueling have extended mission profiles for naval aviation creating challenges for managing essential bodily functions such as waste elimination. Prolonged exposure of skin and mucous membranes to moisture can lead to growth of bacteria that can cause urinary tract infections and other medical issues. Triton Systems will continue the development of an undergarment that incorporates multiple layers of material including a layer utilizing a functional material that is capable of removing the water content in urine.
