NDT of Fracture Toughness for Pipeline Steels
SBC: FBS INC Topic: 180PH1Fracture toughness is the material parameter that, along with applied loading and flaw geometry, dictates the critical crack size, and therefore controls the flaw size that must be detected during inspections. A major challenge facing pipeline operators is that many pipelines are old, making their structural integrity uncertain, and that material pedigree of the pipeline steel is unknown. Therefor ...

Carbon Fiber Thermoplastics with High Through Thickness Modulus- P4513
SBC: MATERIALS SCIENCES LLC Topic: A19107Carbon fiber reinforced thermoplastic matrix composites (TPMCs) have gained increased attention for use in high performance composite structures and components for aviation and launcher applications. TPMCs provide improved damage tolerance, faster processing and assembly, reduced joint weight, minimal store requirements, and recycling options which thermoset composites typically cannot offer. Adva ...

Persistent Coverage by Autonomous UV Swarms
SBC: DANIEL H WAGNER ASSOCIATES INC Topic: A19109As unmanned, distributed systems have revolutionized warfare, methods to control them with minimal human effort have become crucial. This requirement is particularly urgent when swarms of unmanned vehicles (UVs) are employed for a continuing mission, such as persistent area surveillance. This project will leverage existing optimization methods developed by Daniel H. Wagner Associates (DHWA) to mee ...

Multifunctional Materials for Increased Lethality Munitions
SBC: GENERAL SCIENCES INC Topic: A19110General Sciences, Inc (GSI) proposes several intermetallics and other highly energetic concepts as well as structures which can eventually satisfy the desirable Structural Reactive Materials (SRM) specifications. The exothermicity of these candidates can exceed 1.5kcal/g, the density of 8g/cc, and strength that will satisfy future munition requirements. Pertinent studies are proposed in materials/ ...

Novel Designs for Next Generation High Energy Density Lithium Batteries
SBC: HAMR INDUSTRIES LLC Topic: A19146Secondary (rechargeable) batteries are a staple of modern technology, with usage in energy storage, electric vehicles, and support of electronic devices throughout every industry. To date, lithium ion batteries (LIB) represent the most common and highest performing rechargeable battery technology. However, this technology has matured with little room for growth while the requirements for next gene ...

Obscurant Material Drying Processes
SBC: Applied Separations, Inc. Topic: A19155Applied Separations has significant experience in drying metal flakes in supercritical carbon dioxide (scCO2) for obscuration. We have shown reduced agglomeration and better aerosolization of scCO2 dried particles and flakes vs those dried by thermal and freeze-drying methods. Dried metal flakes from organic solvent suspensions have been prepared in multi-kg quantities. Two drying approaches with ...

RAPTOR: Augmented Reality to Enhance Inspection & Maintenance for Vehicle Operators
SBC: TIPPING POINT MEDIA GROUP LLC Topic: A20001During Preventative Maintenance Checks and Services (PMCS), vehicle operators utilize a largely paper-based checklist process to guide inspections of materiel and equipment using technical manuals that outline recommended procedures. This presents challenges such as missing or incomplete paper-based technical manuals, difficult access to fault history for a given vehicle, and delays with mainten ...

Compact Thermal Solutions through Advanced Manufacturing Techniques- MSC P4554
SBC: MATERIALS SCIENCES LLC Topic: A20007Next generation high-speed missile systems require advanced thermal management solutions (TMS) to support high performance missiles and radar electronic transceivers at a system-on-a-chip (SoC) level. High power densities generated due to added chip complexity of transistors and microprocessors is a growing area of concern. Since conventional active TMS can be both large and require additional p ...
