A Compact Turbo-Rankin Energy Conversion System
SBC: CREARE LLC Topic: 8211Creare is developing a miniature power system for NOA weather monitoring stations in remote locations. This system can provide electric power continuously from naturally occurring temperature differences that exist between ambient air and water in environments such as the Arctic Ocean and the Great Lakes. Generating power directly from these temperature difference uses the atmosphere and ocean/lat ...

A Blubber or Dorsal Fin Piercing Tag Attachment System for Remotely-Deployed Cetacean Tags
SBC: American Benchmark Machine Works Topic: 824Animal-borne electronic instruments (tags) are critical tools for monitoring the behavior and ecology of cetaceans, providing data needed for managing their populations and mitigating the threats they face. Although remote-deployment of tags onto cetaceans that cannot be captured has provided valuable data, attachment durations have been frustratingly short and variable. Our Phase II goal is to de ...

High Performance Computing (HPC) Tools for Topology Aware Mapping of Inter-node communication
SBC: COMBUSTION RESEARCH & FLOW TECHNOLOGY INC Topic: DTRA172002A generalized network topology-aware algorithm has been developed that efficiently maps structured and unstructured domains onto available nodes to minimize MPI message passing costs. The methodology utilizes sub-domain inter-dependency information, readily available from standard domain decomposition codes, along with a simulated annealing optimization technique to automatically assign sub-blocks ...

Data-Driven Technology Discovery Methodologies
SBC: Semandex Networks Inc. Topic: DTRA162005During the Phase I effort, Semandex Networks and its team developed a prototype capability to detect trends in research publications by automatically identifying emerging concepts within the data. The implemented capability provides insights into past and

Cyclone Collection system for Radionuclide Detection
SBC: CREARE LLC Topic: DTRA182006The detection of radionuclide aerosols is a critical indicator of a nuclear detonation. Existing sensors as part of the International Monitoring System operate in a batch process and typically have a 48 to 72 hour delay between aerosol sample collection and measurement activities due to limits of instrument sensitivity. The continuous, instantaneous measurements of atmospheric aerosol radiation le ...

XpressRules-PM: Commercial Implementation of PM/NGAC
SBC: XpressRules LLC Topic: NANew Generation Access Control (NGAC)—because of its “neutrality by design”—represents the most effective and scalable approach for deploying “smart” access control and consent solutions in large dynamic scenarios. NGAC however presents with its own problems: (1) it has miniscule recognition and uptake in the workplace, (2) it is unusable by non-technical policy officers and (3) its doc ...

Shallow Water Bathymetric Survey Systems
SBC: CREARE LLC Topic: 829TECHNICAL ABSTRACT: Ship groundings can cause sever environmental damage to the delicate ecosystems such as coral reefs, seagrass beds, and beaches. At present, survey work is performed by hand – a method that is inefficient and difficult to perform reliably. Improved bottom survey tools are clearly needed to evaluate the extent and type of damage and assist in determining remediation efforts. ...

Autonomous Meteorological Measurement System
SBC: CREARE LLC Topic: 8212TECHNICAL ABSTRACT: NOAA and the National Weather Service maintain an immense network of automated maritime, surface, and upper-air observing stations throughout the world and at great expense. These automated stations provide regularly updated data for both short-term weather prediction and long-term climate models. Maritime and surface observations occur as frequently as every 10 to 20 minutes, ...

Clean Energy Source to Power NOAA Long-termObservation and Monitoring Networks
SBC: CREARE LLC Topic: 8211TECHNICAL ABSTRACT: Creare proposes to develop a self-sustained small-scale power conversion system to power NOAA’s weather monitoring network stations located in harsh uninhabited locations. Our miniature heat engine will take advantage of the existing year-round thermal gradients found between water and air in Arctic regions. Our baseline approach is the development of a compact Turbo-Rankine ...

Doppler Wind Temperature Sounder
SBC: BRANDYWINE PHOTONICS LLC Topic: 8212TECHNICAL ABSTRACT: We propose developing a new observational capability for measuring upper atmosphere (20-Km to 200-Km+ altitude) wind and temperature dynamics, based on Doppler imaging of Limb concentrations of NO, N2O, and CO2 called the Doppler Wind Temperature Sounder. The principle of operation is that by measuring the Doppler shift of trace gases created by the differential velocity betwee ...
