Theoretical and experimental development of an atmospheric sensing suite for deep-turbulence research
SBC: Radio-Hydro-Physics LLC Topic: AF11BT41ABSTRACT: This Phase I SBIR will produce a concept, and algorithms, for a Sensor Suite which can be used as a research tool to characterize strong atmospheric turbulence. Previous and on-going theories, statistics, and empirical data will be evaluated to arrive at an optimal Sensor design concept. That Sensor may exploit the superior resolution and performance inherent in the Radio-Hydro-Physi ...

Kinetic Energy Control Technologies for Explosively-dispersed Fragments
SBC: CORVID TECHNOLOGIES, LLC Topic: AF121107ABSTRACT: The US Air Force (AF) is increasingly being required to conduct operations in complex environments with friendly forces or noncombatants in relatively close proximity to targets. Currently there is no single weapon which can offer a satisfactory range of lethal effects on the variety of targets within urban and asymmetric warfare scenarios. To minimize collateral damage the current mo ...

Advanced Corrosion Resistant Coating Systems for Preservation of Aerospace and Infrastructure Systems Used in Military and Commercial Applications
SBC: Porter Scientific, Inc. Topic: AF112217ABSTRACT: A new knowledge-based approach is proposed to mitigate the corrosion of metallic surfaces. The approach is based on the rational design of molecular coating materials based on a new class of phthalocyanines. While these materials resemble fluorinated polymers in their capacity to prevent the intrusion of moisture associated waterborne ions and the diffusion of oxygen to the metallic ...

Multifunctional Prepregs and Laminated Composites Made by Shear Pressing Carbon Nanotube Arrays
SBC: 3TEX, Inc. Topic: AF09BT36A novel method of fabricating carbon nanotube (CNT) reinforced polymer matrix composites is proposed. It includes growing super-aligned carbon nanotube arrays on a flat substrate, using NCSU proprietary shear pressing method to compress the grown arrays into a layer of densely packed, highly aligned CNTs inclined at an angle of several degrees to the substrate, separating the produced CNT sheet fr ...

Improved Joints Based on 3D Fiber Architecture Preforms
SBC: 3TEX, Inc. Topic: 20aWind blades are complex constructions of composite materials. As with all composite structures, forming joints between the various elements has long been problematic, since composites cannot easily be bolted, fastened, or welded together. Current manufacturing methods result in thick adhesive layers that have varying dimensions and which are the most common failure area in wind blades during opera ...
