Subject: Mission report of the ridding of Kll'inghanns from the planet and the modification analysis for the devices

 

Mission overview

After being sent down to the armory I had proceeded to come up with a modification of the devices. Tkaing the devices form their storage locker, a few at a time, the devices were modified manually. A record of the frequencies used for each of the devices was made as the devices were built. Pexil had joined me in the armory to assist in the modification of the devices.

 

The devices were beamed to the surface with the away team. They were placed in the cave at the designated coordinates security had selected. After retreating behind shelter, the devices were set off. The cave was then reentered and cleared to make sure there was no living kll'inghanns left inside. During this time I had picked up one of the devices that was planted to bring back to the Talon for analysis. The serfs where found to be kept in a room with a single door which we had entered by depressing a klingon's hand to a panel adjacent to the door. After freeing the serfs from their holding cell we then beamed back aboard.

 

After getting some sleep, I had reported to engineering with the device I had picked up. Security was contacted to take care of the explosive compound that was taken out of the devices as they were modified. After making a quick check on the power flow I then headed off to a test lab to begin the analysis of the modified device after detonation.

 

Modified Devices

 

Modifications Made:

-Explosive compound was removed

-A rod and sleeve assemble constructed and placed so each rod was against an end of the cylinder

-A reciever chip was added into the control unit

-Container filled with a bio-agent

-The end that was opened for the modifications and filling was sealed

Rod and sleeve assemble:

Made up of two rods put end to end with a sleeve or pipe around the pipes where they joined and covering approximately an inch of each rod. Between the rods there was a disk of the explosive compound placed inside the sleeve which would blow apart the two rods pushing the ends of the cylinders off.

Analysis:

 

 

Stress Fracture - The canister is covered in stress fractures from the ends being pushed out. Since the canister is built to explode in the explosion, this is expected. The amount of explosive compound used in the rod and sleeve assemble seems to be adequate.

 

Material Strength - The canister and the one end recovered appear to have survived the ordeal without breaking appart. If the gas was to be spread quicker a weaker material may be saught after, but I would recommend nothing so weak that the canister would break easily when preparing or accidentaly when handleing.

 

Contorl Unit - The wiring seems slightly burnt fomr the heat created when the canister opened. Since the control unit had already fulfilled its purpose before overheating, this is not a concern.

 

Visual Assessment - The sealent appears to have worked well with the rod and sleeve assemble. The end that was taken off during the modifications was not recovered and therefore assumed that it had come completely off. The rod and sleeve assemble had pushed both ends outward, performing the task well for how I had wanted the assemble to work.

 

Conclusion:

 

 

I would recommend keeping the modification of record for the device for future possible use. Maybe even including a replicational version to make them easier and faster to build.
