ABSTRACT:Tactical Air Control Parties (TACP) and Joint Terminal Air Controller (JTAC) deploy with not only a significant amount of gear, but also a large work load in order to manage all of their responsibilities. As the battlefield becomes more digitized, it is forcing TACPs/JTACs (which we will refer to as just TACPs for brevity in the document) to deal with more information than their current s ...

ABSTRACT: CompuTherm, LLC proposes a pilot project to develop an innovative modeling tool for rapid deployment of thermodynamic capability for Integrated Computational Materials Engineering (ICME). To be developed on the basis of CompuTherms current capability, Pandat software, the proposed modeling tool represents the next generation of CALPHAD software. The significant advances of the proposed m ...

Societal concerns about dwindling fossil fuel reserves and climate change have increased the need to obtain fuel and chemical products from renewable sources. Plant oils have long been used as a source of energy and as feedstocks for industrial chemistry. This Phase I SBIR project is focused on producing high concentrations of acetyl-triacylglycerols (acTAGs) in a dedicated industrial oil seed cro ...

There is considerable electricity production potential in small streams and rivers over 52 GW of capacity in the US alone). The main reason this clean energy resource has remained mostly untapped is that the initial cost has been too high for a suitable return on investment. Existing products are either onesizefitsall with low energy returns, or specially engineered products with high investment c ...
