- Description
- he NAVY EXPERIMENTAL DIVING UNIT, Panama City, FL. Intends to procure via SIMPLIFIED ACQUISITION PROCEDURES, SOLE SOURCE to University of Buffalo, NY. Task 1 Requirement - Probabilistic Dive Planner: NEDU currently has a requirement to verify and modify code for the Probabilistic Dive Planner. The interface to the model code was constructed to use a string to pass in the contents of the original input file to the command line program. NEDU shall have the code translated to a language that can be directly linked with the translated model code allowing all of the code to be compiled into a single executable. The contractor shall remove the restrictions between the interface and the processing code that existed due to the use of the processing code. The contractor shall provide support in the modification of communication routines/protocols between an interface for a dive planner and existing probabilistic model code. The purpose of the changes is to make the interface more flexible and improve the dive planners efficiency by allowing the model state to be saved between successive calls from the interface.Task 2 Requirement - Oxygen Toxicity: Using NEDUs information, the contractor shall generalize the data for application to other durations and surface intervals to expand the scope of usefulness for data collected. The contractor shall assess the models in reference to NEDUs data, select applicable injury and recovery models, fit parameters, and modify the models as necessary to create generalized guidance for exposure to PO2 The intent is to use existing oxygen exposure and outcome data to determine potentially acceptable combinations of dive profiles at PO2 and recovery times on atmospheric air. Task 3 Requirement Test a closed circuit breathing Oxygen Measurement System. The contractor shall convert measurements of PO2 to FO2 while correcting for non-linearity of the O2 sensors. This information once obtained will be critical to determine quantity of oxygen required for procedures using an emergency breathing system. This information will be used to determine sustainable PO2 time intervals and purge procedures. Information obtained will be used to formulate maximum sustain PO2 levels and storage volume of Oxygen required for given scenarios.This is an ongoing research from the University of Buffalo. Phone/fax is unacceptable. E-mail request to louis.diehl@navy.mil NO SOLICITATION AVAILABLE.
