Abstract:This Phase I research is intended to evaluate the feasibility of manufacturing low-cost, acid-resistant sanitary sewer pipe from sulfur concrete. Sulfur is an abundant mineral recovered from coking, natural gas processing, and petroleum refining. Secondary recovery of sulfur, resulting from… more
Abstract:All high performance TERFENOL-D sonar devices require the drivers to be laminated for eddy current control. The process of laminating TERFENOL-D to present interlamina resistivity requirements results in low yields due to considerable material loss and is, therefore, a wasteful process. The… more
Abstract:For current aircraft, hydraulic power is the preferred method of gaining mechanical advantage. Due to its distributed nature and system redundancy requirements, the power comes with the penalty of high weight, cost, and maintenance. ETREMA proposes to develop a magnetostrictive TERFENOL-D driven… more

Abstract:DESCRIPTION: An adaptive and augmentative communication (AAC)system will be developed using standard PC compatible computer components. Using a standard computer rather than specialized hardware will allow the system to be produced less expensively and interfaced with a wide range of peripherals… more
Abstract:This program proposes to replace petroleum-based chemicals with formulations that are less expensive and safer to use in the environment. Critical to this goal is the incorporation of biopolymer additives require as binders for powder injection molding. Water soluble, cellulose-based polymers that… more
Abstract:This project concerns tornado detection based on seismic waves. At the present time, the only generally accepted method for detecting when a tornado is on the ground is human observation. Based on actual seismic signals combined with eyewitness testimony, there is very strong evidence to indicate… more
Abstract:In soybean-based animal feeds, the two galacto-oligosaccharide (raffinose and stachyose) present majorobstacles in accessing the full nutritive value of the soybean meal portion of the diet by chickens andturkeys. The problem is caused by the inability of these animals to hydrolyze raffinose and… more
Abstract:The overall goal of this project is to enable team trainers to develop effective assessments of team training and performance. To achieve this goal, we plan to complete the following three objectives during Phase I. These are: (1) conduct cognitive task analyses focused on team knowledge acquired… more
Abstract:Advancements in digital signal processing (DSP) and video technology have created an opportunity to develop a low-cost system to allow people with disabilities to control a computer using head and eye movements. A software-based system would be developed to track head and eye movements at much… more
Abstract:Mortality during broiler growout still averages from 4 to 6% in the US. Mortality and morbidity are primary sources of economic loss for poultry and livestock producers. Control of morbidity and mortality has generally been accomplished through the use of vaccines and feed antibiotics. In spite… more

Neural Applications Corporation
In the United States steel industry, the total annual electrical energy consumption by electric are furnaces (EAFs) is 16,000,000,000 kwh, at a cost of $600,000,000. Currently, the primary source of thermal energy in EAFs is the electric arc (65% of kwh), with… more
There are several categories such as “By Agency”, “By Year”, “By State” etc.
Select a checkbox within a category to refine your search results.
Each of your selections is listed in the “Narrow Search Filters” bar. You can uncheck these selections to remove them.
Search for Either Criteria
When you select multiple values within a category, the results will include values that match either of the selections.
For example, selecting “2005” and “2007” in the “By Year” category will display results that include either 2005 OR 2007 in the results.
Narrowing the Search Results
You can refine your search results across categories. To narrow down your results, select multiple values across different categories. The results will only include values that match the selections across the categories.
For example, selecting “2005” in the “By Year” category and “NASA” in the “By Agency” category will only display the results that contain both “2005” AND “NASA” in the results.
