Abstract: A cellular drainage structure is formed of a predetermined volume of a settable, water permeable, cellular concrete product. A concrete mix is formed of a uniformly graded aggregate in the size range from 1/16 inch to two inches and in a quantity corresponding to the predetermined volume; a cementitious component in the quantity range from 141 to 658 pounds per cubic yard of product; water in quantity sufficient to create a water-to-cement ratio in the approximate range from 0.30 to 0.55 and sufficient to wet the aggregate, establishing a cementitious-component-and-water matrix of determinable volume; a pre-formed surfactant foam, generated from an aqueous surfactant mixture at a dilution of from approximately 3 to 25 grams per liter of surfactant in water, wherein the pre-formed foam is in the density range of from 2.0 to 3.0 pcf, and the foam is added in the quantity range of 5% to 30% of the volume of the cementitious-component-and-water matrix.

Abstract: A weather resistant soil cement with an open pore structure for resisting freeze-thaw damage is formed of cement, fly ash, Free aggregates, water, and an aqueous foamed surfactant, and other application specific additives. The material is uniquely suited for using indigenous soils, mill tailings, or granular waste products as the aggregate component of the mixture, although commercially produced aggregates may be used depending on economics and availability. Due to its low density and flowable nature, it can be pumped or placed by gravity and without compaction. The resulting product is a low density material with construction and mining applications, that is suited for use as a fill or mad base. Specific product formulations are easily designed to permit removal at local sites with conventional excavating equipment.

Abstract: A multiple parameter doppler radar system transmits a radar signal which is alternated between a first and second frequency toward a target. The doppler shifted signals reflected from the target are received and processed to derive a pair of doppler signals related respectively to the first and second frequency signals. The frequency of one of the doppler signals is measured and scaled to a target speed. The phase magnitude between the two doppler signals is measured and scaled to a target range. The phase lead/lag relationship of the two doppler signals is detected to determine if the target is moving toward or away from the radar system. The components of the system are controlled by a microprocessor which is programmed to perform quality determinations on the data derived from the signals to assess the reliability of the data even in a multiple target environment prior to displaying the parameters of target motion.
