UHAC ship to shore and USS Rushmore b-roll during RIMPAC 2014



The 1/2-scale Ultra Heavy-Lift Amphibious Connector makes its way July 11, 2014 from Marine Corps Training Area Bellows to the USS Rushmore during the Marine Corps Warfighting Laboratory's Advanced Warfighting Experiment (AWE) in Hawaii. This is the first time the UHAC enters the well-deck of a US Navy ship. After taking on the Growler ITV, the UHAC departs the Rushmore and returns to MCTAB. The Lab conducted the AWE during Rim of the Pacific Exercise 2014, to test potential future technologies, solutions and concepts to future Marine Air Ground Task Force (MAGTF) challenges.

U.S. Marines' Prototype Tank/Paddleboat Hybrid: Ultra Heavy-Lift Amphibious Connector

U.S. Marines' Prototype Tank/Paddleboat Hybrid: Ultra Heavy-Lift Amphibious Connector



The Ultra Heavy-Lift Amphibious Connector makes its way toward the USS Rushmore to pick up heavy logistics gear and ITV to support operations on Marine Corps Training Area Bellows, Hawaii, during the Marine Corps Warfighting Lab's Advanced Warfare Experiment, July 11, 2014. The UHAC is one of those experimental technologies that displays a possible capability of being able to insert Marines in areas where current technology wouldn't be able to insert them based on current systems that are fielded. The UHAC prototype is a ship-to-shore connector and is half the size of the intended machine. Currently, the UHAC travels at four knots using a track system with floatation-like pads that propels itself through different terrain. Courtesy Video | Marine Corps Futures Directorate.

Ship Launch | 10 Awesome Waves, FAILS and CLOSE CALLS

Ship Launch | 10 Awesome Waves, FAILS and CLOSE CALLS



Compilation of the best satisfying ship launch videos I recorded including some surprising clips like the amphibious vehicles or the inclined planes at the Elblag Canal. The awesome sideways ship launches take place in Leer, Germany and Westerbroek, The Netherlands. The biggest ship in this video was launched in Flensburg, Germany.

Planets of our Solar System Documentary - The Discovery of the Universe

Planets of our Solar System Documentary — The Discovery of the Universe



The galaxies outside of our own are moving away from us, and the ones that are farthest away are moving the fastest. This means that no matter what galaxy you happen to be in, all the other galaxies are moving away from you.
However, the galaxies are not moving through space, they are moving in space, because space is also moving. In other words, the universe has no center; everything is moving away from everything else. If you imagine a grid of space with a galaxy every million light years or so, after enough time passes this grid will stretch out so that the galaxies are spread to every two million light years, and so on, possibly into infinity.

New devices morph and transform - like Iron Man's suit

New devices morph and transform — like Iron Man's suit



BYU researchers unfold new class of mechanical devices
It took just over 10 years, but real science has finally caught up to the science fiction of Iron Man’s transforming exoskeleton suit. In a paper published Feb. 13, 2019, in Science Robotics, engineers at Brigham Young University detail new technology that allows them to build complex mechanisms into the exterior of a structure without taking up any actual space below the surface.
This new class of origami-inspired mechanisms, called “developable mechanisms,” get their name from developable surfaces, or materials that can take on 3-D shapes from flat conformations without tearing or stretching, like a sheet of paper or metal. They reside in a curved surface (like, say, the arms of Iron Man’s suit) and can transform or morph when deployed to serve unique functions. When not in use, they can fold back into the surface of the structure seamlessly.
“These new discoveries make it possible to build complex machines that integrate with surfaces to be very compact, but can deploy and do complex tasks,” said researcher Larry Howell, professor of mechanical engineering at BYU. “It opens up a whole new world of potential devices that have more functions, but are still very compact.”
Making hyper-compact mechanisms is something increasingly important as manufacturers across medical, space and military industries are constantly working to get more complex functionality in less space. Potential applications of developable mechanisms include:
• Medical: Surgical instruments that can both cut materials and deploy lights simultaneously during minimally-invasive surgery
• Vehicles and airplanes: Storage components that could deploy from the inner surface of the fuselage and be completely out of the way when not in use
• Military: Quad-rotor drones that have adjustable wing spans for fitting in tight spaces
• Space: Wheels that could deploy claws for rock crawling, which could be especially useful to an interplanetary rover.
This new class of mechanical structures evolved from Howell and colleague Spencer Magleby’s work on origami-based engineering, done in collaboration with origami artist Robert Lang. From solar arrays for NASA to bulletproof barriers for police officers, their work has generated national and international coverage. As the group of researchers moved to curved origami principles, the mathematics revealed a new way of doing more complex machines.
“Origami was a stepping stone to this,” Magleby said. “The art of Origami has inspired us to do things that don’t even look like Origami, yet it is the core of much of this new engineering.”
The new line of research is sponsored by the National Science Foundation and includes researchers at BYU, the University of Southern Indiana and Lang Origami.
“It’s pretty cool to accomplish things that have merely been science fiction in the past,” Howell said. “These are discoveries that will enable us to do things that no one has ever been able to do before. And we hope that other engineers, as they build on these discoveries, will apply them in ways that will help make the world a better place.
