Fluorescence in Bio-inspired Nanotechnology: First as Probe, Then as Function

In his thesis Fluorescence in Bio-inspired Nanotechnology, Jonas Hannestad describes the evolving box of DNA nanotechnology in a lucid and simply obtainable method. A imperative topic within the thesis is how organic buildings and mechanisms represent a foundation for the layout of novel applied sciences. Hannestad discusses how self-assembled, nanometer-scale DNA constructs may be functionalized utilizing fluorescent labeling.

The payloads are controlled and operated via onboard openarchitecture, multifunction workstations. Intelligence collected on the ARL can be analyzed, recorded, and disseminated on the aircraft workstations in real-time and stored on-board for post-mission processing. During multi-aircraft missions, data can be shared between cooperating aircraft via ultra highfrequency air-to-air data links, allowing multiplatform COMINT geolocation operations. The ARL system includes a variety of communications subsystems to support near-real-time dissemination of intelligence and dynamic retasking of the aircraft.

Each includes an integrated MEDEVAC Mission Equipment Package (MEP) kit, providing day/night and adverse weather emergency evacuation of casualties. There are multiple versions of the UH-60 Black Hawk: the original UH60A; the UH-60L, which has greater gross weight capability, higher cruise speed, rate of climb, and external load; and the UH-60M, which includes the improved GE-701D engine and provides greater cruising speed, rate of climb, and internal load than the UH-60A and UH-60L versions. During FY10, the Army decided to continue only with developmental testing of the UH-60M P3I Upgrade components, including On the asymmetric battlefield, the Black Hawk enables the commander to get to the fight quicker and to mass effects throughout the battlespace across the full spectrum of conflict.
