Genesys™
Inherently Survivable Systems
  Genesys
is a suite of technology and design approaches focused on
increased vehicle survivability. From healable resins to morphing
capabilities, Genesys encompasses a broad range of integrated
materials and systems. Vehicles incorporating Genesys technologies
will perform almost instinctively, expanding operation performance
by compensating for damage on-the-fly.
Because these capabilities are designed
into the system, survivability depends more on healing, adaptability
and continuous monitoring than on heavy-duty reinforcement
 structures
that add weight to the overall design.
Some Advantages
• Adaptibility
• Survivability
• Increased range
• Increased speed
• Increased payload
• Better endurance
• Affordability
• Less time in repairs
• More time in the field or air
Some Genesys Design Features
• Integrated, Reflexive, Structural
Health Monitoring (SHM): continual
scans of the structure for
damage
• Healable Structures: healable composites
capable of in situ damage repair
• Embedded Systems: bio-inspired "nervous"
and "circulatory" systems
inherent within the structure,
enabling regeneration and signature control
• Active Camouflage: surface luminescence
and color patterning
• Bio-Mimicking: shape change and
visual signature manipulation
• Signature Control: radar, IR, acoustic,
visual
• Active Property Change: vehicle
preparation for imminent impact
• Passive-Adaptive Structures: passive
shape-change response to changing
aerodynamic conditions
