Brief Description and Purpose: In the mid to late 1990’s, PC Krause and Associates (PCKA), Purdue University, the University of Missouri-Rolla (UMR), and the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee (UWM) had been extensively involved, as a group, in research, analysis, simulation, and design of power-electronic based systems for government agencies (Navy, Air Force, NASA, and the Army) interested in the more-electric initiative program. This group, of which PCKA was the small business arm, evolved naturally from a need to combine expertise in order to conduct the required work which has involved a large spectrum of power/drive systems ranging from spacecraft to tactical vehicles. The commonalities that exist between these many systems in configuration and components became very apparent. This sole-source contract was the first effort by the Air Force to encourage interagency interaction in sharing the results of the research and engineering projects common to aircraft power systems and to provide a convenient funding vehicle to encourage shared funding, among these agencies, for projects of mutual interest.
