Upscaling and Optimization of Magnet to Magnet Recycling
SBC: NOVEON MAGNETICS INC Topic: DLA161003Neodymium-iron-boron rare-earth based magnets are key components of mobile phones, electric vehicles, wind-turbines and many critical US defense systems. Despite their importance, the US is completely reliant on imports from China for their supply. Future supply risk renders this situation untenable, yet re-establishing the supply chain for these magnets in the US could take two decades. Urban Min ...

Development of Innovative Welding for High Performance Bridge Steel
SBC: KAI, LLC Topic: 132FH1With this research, we would like to provide new materials joining methods to the DOT. This will be achieved with a pulse energy store that has already demonstrated game changing capability in welding a wide variety of metals and alloys. The process we are proposing is known as Homopolar Welding. The weld is created by a solid state fusion welding process whereby high current is passed through the ...

SoldierBoost, Nutrient-Dense Soldier Food Supplement
SBC: Systems & Materials Research Corporation Topic: DLA163001Soldiers engaged in high intensity operations can burn up to 4,500 kcal of energy per day, which cannot be compensated for by current rationsMeals Ready to Eat (MREs) and First Strike Rations (FSRs) only provide up to 3,750 kcal/day and 2,900 kcal/day, respectively. This energy debt is further aggravated by the fact that most soldiers field strip their MREs, removing menu items that are undesirabl ...

Nanomaterial-based Tamper-proof Anti-counterfeit Packaging Labels
SBC: ADA TECHNOLOGIES, INC. Topic: DLA163003The risk of counterfeit parts insertion into the Department of Defense (DoD) supply chain can happen at multiple stages during the product/part/component/subcomponent manufacturing or distribution. Original component manufacturers typically reside in the lowest risk category whereas unverified sources/unidentified suppliers account for the maximum number of counterfeit issues. In addition, older l ...

Resilient Wayside Structures and Passenger Car Survivability
SBC: PROTECTION ENGINEERING CONSULTANTS LLC Topic: 171FR3Additional passenger fatalities and injuries can occur during derailments due to interaction with wayside structures, such as catenary poles, bridge abutments, and discontinuities in third rails at highway grade crossings. Resilient wayside structures can reduce these risks, by lessening the amount of intrusion, penetration, and passenger motion. PEC and Arup will work together to develop resilien ...

GPS-BASED AUTONOMOUS SPACE NAVIGATION
SBC: Arrowsmith Technologies Inc Topic: N/ACOMMERCIAL AND GOVERNMENT SPACE TRANSPORTATION SYSTEMS DEPEND ON GROUND SUPPORT FOR NAVIGATION. THE GROUND SOLUTION CAN BE COSTLY AND MAY PROVIDE LESS ACCURACY THAN NEEDED. A GPS-BASED REAL-TIME AUTONOMOUS SPACECRAFT NAVIGATION SYSTEM IS PROPOSED. AN ALGORITHM WILL BE DEVELOPED WHICH COMBINES GPS-DERIVED POINT POSITION ESTIMATES WITH A PROPAGATED A PRIORI POSITION ESTIMATE. THE POINT POSITIONS ARE ...

Digital Waveform-Based System for Acoustic Emission Measurement for Nondestructive Testing of Structural Steel
SBC: Digital Wave Corp. Topic: N/ADigital Wave Corporation proposed to develop a novel nondestructive testing (NDT) system for high speed acquisition and analysis of wide band acoustic emission (AE) waveforms. The system will provide the capability to detect, identify and locate crack growth in loaded steel structures. This system will incorporate the new high fidelity sensor developed by the Federal Highway Administration and a ...

STRUCTURES
SBC: Invocon Consultants Topic: N/AA NEED EXISTS TO MONITOR VIBRATION IN HIGHWAY BRIDGES. IT IS DESIRABLE TO MONITOR MANY POINTS ON THE BRIDGE. THE CURRENT PROBLEM IS THAT SENSORS MUST BE WIRED TO A CENTRAL LOCATION. WIRE IS DIFFICULT TO INSTALL AND TO MOVE. THE SOLUTION IS TO COLLECT SENSOR DATA BY RADIO. A SYSTEM EXISTS THAT ELIMINATES WIRE. IT GATHERS SENSOR DATA TO A CENTRAL LOCATION BY RADIO. THE SYSTEM'S UNIQUE FEATURE IS THA ...

Field Energy Recoil Emission Technology (FERET)
SBC: INVOCON, INC. Topic: N/APassenger safety concerns have prompted the FAA to elicit energy-sensitive neutron detectors which do not rely on the time-of-flight method and are suitable for use in explosive detection systems. Invocon, Inc. proposes to design an inspection system consisting of an energy source and a detector. Designated FERET sytem, (Field Energy Recoid Emission Technology), it would detect substances identi ...
