MARCY, HTThe Honorable H. Tyler (“Ty”) Marcy:was born in 1918 in Rochester
New York but moved to Baltimore Maryland at an early age where he attended public schools. He is a graduate of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology from which he received both his BS and MS degrees in Electrical Engineering. Subsequent to receiving the latter degree in 1941 he designed and developed gun control systems in the MIT Servomechanism Laboratory until 1946 when he became Associate Director Special Projects Department M. W. Kellogg Company and worked on rocket engine development missile controls and analog air defense systems. In 1951
Mr. Marcy left Kellogg Company to join the IBM Corporation where he remained until 1972 and was employed in various engineering and managerial positions. At IBM his first assignment concerned the bomb/navigational system for the B-52 aircraft. He then moved into commercial development of data processing machines and peripheral devices subsequently being placed in a series of technical management positions which included Assistant Manager of Product Development Corporate Headquarters New York (1956) Manager
Poughkeepsie N.Y. Laboratory (1957) Vice-President
General Products Division (1962) Vice-President
Systems Development Division (1965) and Director of Technology
Corporate Headquarters Armonk N. Y. (1968). His last position was held until 1972 when he left IBM to do private consulting work in engineering management technology and program review. In October 1974 he was appointed by the President to his present office as Assistant Secretary of the Navy for Research and Development. Mr. Marcy has been a member of the Instrument Society of America since 1963
serving as its President from 1971 until 1974. In 1967 he became a Fellow of the Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers (IEEE) for his leadership in feedback control and for his significant contribution to the management of technical enterprise. In addition to these professional organizations he is also a member of the

PLATO, ARTIS I.GAMBREL, WILLIAM DAVIDArtis I. Plato:is Head of the Design Work Study/ Shipboard Manning/Human Factors Engineering Section
Systems Engineering and Analysis Branch Naval Ship Engineering Center (NAVSEC). He graduated from the City College of New York in 1956 receiving his Bachelor of Mechanical Engineering degree. Following this he started work at the New York Naval Shipyard in the Internal Combustion Engine and Cargo Elevator Section. During 1957 and 1958 he was called up for active duty with the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers and served in Europe with a Construction Engineer Battalion. After release from active duty he returned to the shipyard where he remained until 1961 when he transferred to the Naval Supply Research and Development Facility Bayonne New Jersey. Initially he was in charge of an Engineering Support Test Group and the drafting services for the whole Facility. Later he became a Project Engineer in the Food Services Facilities Branch with duties that included planning and designing new afloat and ashore messing facilities for the Navy. In 1966 he transferred to NAVSEC as a Project Engineer in the Design Work Study Section and in this capacity worked on selected projects and manning problems for new construction and also developed a computer program (Manpower Determination Model) that makes accurate crew predictions for feasibility studies. In 1969 he became Head of the Section. He has been active in the U.S. Army Reserve since his release from active duty and his duties have included command of an Engineer Company various Staff positions and his present assignment as Operations Officer for a Civil Affairs Group. He has completed the U. S. A rmy Corps of Engineers Career Course and the Civil Affairs Career Course and is presently enrolled in the U.S. Army Command and General Staff College non-resident course. Additionally he completed graduate studies at American University Washington D.C in 1972 receiving his MSTM degree in Technology of Management and is a member of ASE ASME CAA U. S. Naval Instit

FAIRBANKS, JOHN W.The author is a graduate of the Maine Maritime Academy
Stanford University and the University of Santa Clara. His undergraduate degrees were in Marine and Mechanical Engineering and his Masters Degree Specialization was in Heat-Mass-Momentum Transfer within the Mechanical Engineering Department He has taught Gas Dynamics Thermodynamics and Direct Energy Conversion at Texas A&M and the University of Maryland and has sailed as a licensed Marine Engineer for two and a half years with the American Export Lines currently holding active First Assistant Steam Unlimited and Third Assistant Diesel Unlimited licenses. From 1954 to 1957 he was on active duty in the U.S. Navy serving in the USS Montrose (APA-212) as both Main Propulsion Assistant and Chief Engineer. While employed at Hiller Aircraft Company he was in the Advanced Research Group and worked on the Detached Coanda Effect for VTOL and ground effect machines as well as designing high-speed bearings and high-speed shaft test stands for the SC-142A an experimental tilt wing aircraft program. In 1963 he went to Philco-Ford to design a Brayton Cycle Power System for a solar probe spacecraft and also worked on the Thermal and Power System Design of the IDCSP (DOD's Communication Satellite). At NASA's Goddard Space Center for six years his responsibilities included design fabrication integration test launch and flight operation of solar arrays on two spacecraft and also as Power Systems Engineer for the Orbiting Astronomical Observatory the largest unmanned spacecraft flown. In 1971 he joined NAVSEC where he is currently the Program Engineer on the FT9 Gas Turbine Development Program and Coordinator of the Navy's Materials Programs for advanced gas turbines. Having organized the first two Navy Gas Turbine Materials Conferences he is presently organizing U.S. participation in a joint U.S. Navy Royal Navy Gas Turbine Materials Conference to be held in ‘the United Kingdom in September 1976.

The current Navy philosophy for marine gas turbine engine development is to marinize an existing aircraft turbo jet engine. The FT9 Marine Gas Turbine Engine is a 33,000 horsepower version of the Pratt and Whitney JT9D engine, which powers the 747 aircraft. Marinization of the JT9D basically involves removal of the fan section, addition of a power turbine, structural modification to several components, and material changes to provide corrosion‐resistance in the marine environment. Characteristics and ratings of the individual engine components are discussed as well as the assembled engine. The FT9 design incorporates the modular replacement concept. Modular replacement permits replacement of short‐life components such as the hot‐section without removing the engine from its mounts. The FT9 specification requires development of a condition monitoring system as an integral part of the engine development. Thus, provisions for sensor installations are incorporated in the design. Accelerometers are installed on the internal engine bearing housings to provide improved vibration signals. These accelerometers are mounted on rods such that they are removable without engine disassembly. Extensive borescope provisions are included to provide capability to inspect all hot‐section components without disassembling the engine. The engine life‐limiting component is the hot‐section because of the susceptibility of the blade and vane materials to sulphidation/oxidation at the temperatures encountered with the advanced engines. Sophisticated Made and vane cooling is used to allow high turbine inlet temperatures while keeping blade metal temperatures in a region where sulphidation/oxidation is only moderately active. Coatings are added to blades and vanes to extend engine life. Three FT9 engines will be delivered to the Navy. The target date for provisional Service Approval of FT9 is mid‐1978. FT9 will provide the U.S. Navy with the most advanced marine gas turbine with the highest powe

Conditions guaranteeing stability of the optimal surely locally unbiased decentralized filter are derived and it is shown that the filter preserves the stabilizability of the system. It is also noted that the performance of the filter is bounded between that of the centralized filter and the decentralized filter obtained by regarding the interactions as known signals.
