Download or read book Improving Corrosion Prevention and Control in the Army written by Adalberto Morales and published by . This book was released on 2012 with total page 30 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Army spends approximately 2.4 billion of dollars annually in corrosion prevention and corrective maintenance of tactical wheeled vehicles. Billions more are invested in the recruitment, training and retention of the manpower needed to utilize and support this equipment. The products of these investments and their material properties are at risk of degradation due to corrosion. This paper will analyze and determine what critical, effective and appropriate actions could be taken in order to improve the Army's performance on issues related to corrosion prevention and control programs on tactical wheeled vehicles. In addition, this paper will analyze the effectiveness of the Army Corrosion Prevention and Control Strategic Plan, its key elements, prevention initiatives, current training, education, budget constraints, statutes and future policy changes. Finally, this paper will provide recommendations on how to educate and integrate operators, maintainers and workforce on preventing corrosion. Decision makers will then be better prepared to determine allocation of strategic resources, prioritize policy initiatives and assess options needed to improve corrosion prevention on tactical wheeled vehicles.

Book excerpt: " Corrosion costs DOD billions of dollars annually by taking critical systems out of action and creating safety hazards. Recognizing the need for coordinated corrosion prevention and control efforts and planning, House Report 112-78 directed the military departments to develop corrosion prevention strategies that support the DOD Corrosion Prevention and Mitigation Strategic Plan. The House Report directed GAO to evaluate the long-term strategies developed by the Corrosion Executive of each military department and to report the findings to both the Senate Armed Services Committee and the House Armed Services Committee. GAO assessed the extent to which the military departments (1) coordinated with the Corrosion Office to ensure consistency of their strategic plans with DOD's overarching goals and objectives and conformity with DOD Instruction 5000.67; and (2) included characteristics of a comprehensive strategic plan in their respective plans. GAO reviewed relevant legislation, the corrosion prevention strategic plans of DOD and the military departments, and interviewed DOD corrosion officials. "

Government Accountability Office and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2017-07-27 with total page 42 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: " According to DOD, corrosion can significantly affect maintenance cost, service life of equipment, and military readiness by diminishing the operations of critical systems and creating safety hazards. Pursuant to Section 2228 of Title 10 of the U.S. Code, DOD's Corrosion Office is responsible for prevention and mitigation of corrosion of military equipment and infrastructure. To help identify technology to prevent or mitigate corrosion and educate personnel about corrosion prevention and control, DOD funds universities and military labs in the TCC program. GAO was asked to review DOD's TCC program and its goals. In this report, GAO addressed the extent to which DOD (1) has established procedures for managing the TCC program, (2) can provide information on the amount of funds spent on the program to date, and (3) has established goals for the TCC program and transitioned demonstrated results from projects to military departments. GAO reviewed DOD policies and plans and met with DOD corrosion officials and TCC participants. "

This book was released on 2014 with total page 190 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The majority of military education and training has not veered far from the days of chalk and talk instruction. Often with technological breakthroughs comes the proposal of the next revolution in multimedia instruction. Motion pictures to radios to educational television programs have all seemed to come and gone. The next wave of multimedia learning may involve more than a PowerPoint® presentation and lecture. Researchers continue to propose that Virtual Reality (VR) will find its true application and/or market in education and training. The objective of the project was to develop and provide a low-cost, scalable, and portable VR system containing purposely designed and developed immersive Virtual Learning Environments (VLE). The purpose of the research study was to empirically compare the routine classroom instructor-led training and immersive VLE training in terms of learning and long-term retention of basic Corrosion Prevention and Control (CPC) knowledge in U.S. Army soldiers after taking an U.S. Army Aviation and Missile Life Cycle Management Command (AMCOM) Corrosion Program Office (CPO) CPC training course. Usability evaluation of the VR system was also included. The immersive VLEs were a better form of multimedia instruction in terms of learning for basic CPC theories and principles than instructor-led lectures with PowerPoint. In terms of learning there was a statistically significant interaction between instruction type and time, Wilks' Lambda = .97, F(1, 138) = 3.942, p = .049. In terms of long-term retention, there was no significant interaction between instruction type and time.
