This announcement constitutes the only solicitation; proposals are being requested and a written solicitation will not be issued. 1.0 Introduction. The Platform Integration Function of the Propulsion and Structures Directorate is conducting final design and qualification of a new release mechanism for the M272/M27 9/M299 family of Hellfire Launchers. Part of this process is to develop air worthiness release documentation through modeling and analysis. This requires complex modeling and experimental techniques. 2.0 Performance requirements. The contractor shall develop the following approaches: 2.1 Hybrid Component Mode Synthesis. Develop alternate approach to the classical component mode synthesis methodology that utilizes experimental modal models and data. This will be applied to semi-free/constrained comp onents. 2.2 Experimental Measurement Exploration. Investigate the significance of measurement location on complex systems that are not easily instrumented when in an operational configuration. This is aimed at bridging the gap between academic and real world structures. 2.3 Expansion of Operating Data. Develop methods of expanding the limited data collected in an operating shape test to a larger data set increasing the usefulness of the operating data. 2.4 Scaling of Operating Data. Develop method of scaling the operating data, expanded or raw, to provide further insight similar to that of a traditional experimental modal test. 2.5 Rigid Body Mode Estimation. Develop methods of estimating the component rigid body modes as they relate to the over all system response and are necessary for total system analyses. 2.6 Test Support. Participate in experimental testing conducted at Redstone Arsenal. 3.0 Security. Security requirement for this Technical Instruction is unclassified. 4.0 Government furnished property/government furnished equipment. None. Deliverables. A report will be provided for each task identified in paragraph 2.1 thru 2.6. The models will be delivered in MATLAB and LMS formats as applicable. Award is to be made to the Unive rsity of Massachusetts, Lowell, Lowell, Massachusetts. The place of delivery, acceptance and FOB point is U.S. Army Aviation and Missile Life Cycle Management Command, Redstone Arsenal, Alabama, 35898, marked for the attention of Brock Birdsong, phone (25 6) 876-5119.
