Company: Flow Research Inc Agency/Program/Year/Phase: DOD / SBIR / 1988 / 2
Abstract: ALTHOUGH STRONG IN THE LAMINATE PLANE, COMPOSITES EXHIBIT WEAK INTERLAMINAR PROPERTIES. AS A RESULT, DELAMINATIONS CAN OCCUR DURING MANUFACTURING OR IN SERVICE ENVIRONMENTS. THIS PROPOSAL ADDRESSES A NEED FOR FRACTURE CRITERIA MODELS FOR BOTH ORGANIC AND METAL MATRIX COMPOSITES. A MAJOR OBJECTIVE IS… more
Company: Flow Research Inc Agency/Program/Year/Phase: NSF / SBIR / 1988 / 2
Abstract: THE PROPOSED FIBER OPTIC TACTILE SENSOR USES VARIABLE BIREFRINGENCE TO PROVIDE A MUCH NEEDED ROBOTIC END EFFECTOR WITH SENSING CAPABILITIES INCLUDING PRESSURE, FORCE, TOUCH AND PROXIMITY. A TWO-DIMENSIONAL ARRAY OF THESE MINIATURE PRESSURE SENSORS PROVIDES A PLANAR TACTILE SENSOR. A MAJOR ADVANTAGE… more
Company: Flow Research Inc Agency/Program/Year/Phase: DOD / SBIR / 1988 / 2
Abstract: THE UNSTEADY FLOW PHENOMENA AROUND REALISTIC SCRAMJET FLAME HOLDERS WILL BE STUDIED USING AN EFFICIENT TIME-ACCURATE NUMERICAL SCHEME. NUMERICAL SIMULATION OF A SUBSONIC RAMJET HAS SHOWN AN INTERACTION BETWEEN THE LARGE-SCALE VORTICES AND ACOUSTIC WAVES AT A CHARACTERISTIC NONACOUSTIC EIGENFREQUENCY… more
Company: Flow Research Inc Agency/Program/Year/Phase: NASA / SBIR / 1988 / 1
Abstract: AN EXPERIMENTAL INVESTIGATION OF SHOCK WAVE/SHEAR LAYER INTERACTIONS TO ENHANCE MIXING IN A SUPERSONIC COMBUSTION RAMJET (SCRAMJET) ENGINE IS PROPOSED. IN A SCRAMJET ENGINE OPERATING AT HYPERSONIC FLIGHT SPEEDS, THE SHORTER RESIDENCETIME AND DECREASED MIXING RATE CAUSE DETERIORATION IN THE… more
Company: Flow Research Inc Agency/Program/Year/Phase: DOE / SBIR / 1988 / 2
Abstract: THIS PROGRAM WILL INVESTIGATE ADVANCED ABRASIVE WATERJET (AWJ) TECHNIQUES TO FACILITATE THE DECONTAMINATION AND DECOMMISSIONING OF NUCLEAR FACILITIES. TWO SPECIFIC NEEDS ARE TO BE ADDRESSED: METAL SURFACE REMOVAL FOR COMPLETE DECONTAMINATION OF LARGE, HEAVILY CONTAMINATED METAL STRUCTURES AND… more
Company: Flow Research Inc Agency/Program/Year/Phase: NSF / SBIR / 1988 / 1
Abstract: THERE EXISTS CONSIDERABLE SCIENTIFIC AND COMMERCIAL INTERESTIN THE GEOLOGY OF THE OCEAN FLOOR. THE U.S. NAVY'S DEEP SUBMERGENCE VEHICLE (DSV) SEA CLIFF IS A MANNED SUBMERSIBLE CAPABLE OF DIVING TO 20,000 FEET. A PORTION OF ITS ANNUAL SERVICE IS USED BY THE SCIENTIFIC COMMUNITY FOR GEOLOGICAL… more
Company: Flow Research Inc Agency/Program/Year/Phase: DOD / SBIR / 1988 / 1
Abstract: THE ABILITY TO OPTIMIZE THE DESIGN OF V/STOL AIRCRAFT AND TO PREDICT THEIR PERFORMANCE REQUIRES A GOOD UNDERSTANDING OF THE COMPLEX JET-INDUCED PHENOMENA ASSOCIATED WITH THESE AIRCRAFT. PRESENTLY, EXPERIMENTAL WORK IS THE MAIN AVENUE FOLLOWED TO GAIN AN UNDERSTANDING OF V/STOL FLOWS. NUMERICAL… more
Company: Flow Research Inc Agency/Program/Year/Phase: DOD / SBIR / 1988 / 1
Abstract: AIRCRAFT TYPICALLY USE PNEUMATIC TIRE EQUIPPED LANDING GEAR. MORE AIRCRAFT ARE BEING TASKED TO BE CAPABLE OF OPERATING TO AND FROM PAVED AND ROUGH/SOFT FIELDS OR RUNWAYS TO SUPPORT GROUND OPERATIONS. ADJUSTING TIRE PRESSURE FOR OPTIMAL TIRE/SOIL INTERACTION WILL BE NECESSARY TO ACCOMPLISH THIS GOAL.… more
Company: Fluidyne Corp Agency/Program/Year/Phase: EPA / SBIR / 1988 / 1
Abstract: THE CONTAINMENT OF TOXIC MATERIALS ALREADY BURIED IN THE GROUND AND THE CONSTRUCTION OF NEW DISPOSAL SITES ARE DIFFI-CULT TASKS. IN BOTH CASES THERE IS A NEED FOR VERTICAL AND HORIZONTAL BARRIER WALLS IN THE GROUND THAT ARE KNOWN TO BE DIFFICULT AND EXPENSIVE TO CONSTRUCT WITH CURRENTLY-AVAILA- BLE… more
