And no wonder. In an age of intensive and instant communications, cryptography has acquired supreme importance in guessing and occasionally ascertaining the next step of friend and foe alike. Within the bowels of NSA, constant research is conducted into new theories and systems of communications and codes. Mathematicians probe the...
With a double heat shield on an ICBM warhead, for example, the outer shield can be made to take the brunt of X-ray damage, leaving the inner shield to protect the warhead as it descends through the atmosphere. A neutron-blocking layer of paraffin or liquid hydrogen can prevent...
The technique itself is relatively uncomplicated -- bits of syllables are arbitrarily discarded by a special electromagnetic speech compressor machine. Cramer has found, through extensive experimentation, that the ideal "discard interval" is 14 milliseconds, or only 14/1000 of every second of recorded speech. Yet the result is good comprehension at rates...
Tingling Sensation. Under Way's guidance, and with about $1,600 worth of storage batteries, the electromagnetic coil, aluminum tubing and fiberglass reinforced plastic paid for by the university, the engineering seniors completed the EM51 during the spring semester. They successfully demonstrated it for the first time this June...
Though the electromagnetic submarine's silent, virtually undetectable operation makes it of prime interest to the Navy, Way is convinced that its greatest future lies in the development of super submarine tankers. Since the efficiency of an electromagnetic submarine increases with size, the visionary engineer is already looking forward...
