Data Analytics and Machine Learning Toolkit to Accelerate Materials Design and Processing Development
SBC: CFD RESEARCH CORPORATION Topic: N19AT020The US Navy has identified refractory high entropy alloys (RHEAs) and metal additive manufacturing (AM) as enabling technologies to meet performance and sustainability targets for shipboard and aircraft systems. Key challenges include designing RHEAs and optimizing metal AM to achieve desired material properties for Navy propulsion applications. Developing materials and processes via traditional e ...

Multiple Images Spatial Turbulence Imager (MISTI)
SBC: POLARIS SENSOR TECHNOLOGIES INC Topic: AF071340Because of the maneuvering capabilities of adversaries’ new hypersonic weapons, defensive missiles must fly in very demanding flight regimes, and intercept maneuvers place stringent requirements on interceptor seeker systems. Successfully completing the hit-to-kill end game requires the seeker can either compensate for or perform despite the thermal and optical effects that cause the seeker to m ...

Triton™: Active Imaging through Fog
SBC: SA PHOTONICS, LLC Topic: N18AT021Active imaging systems are used in degraded visual environments, like those found in marine fog and other areas with a high level of attenuation and scattering from obscurants like rain, smoke and dust. These systems are still limited in range and resolution. SA Photonics is taking advantage of new eyesafe, hybrid fiber-bulk laser technology capable of high pulse energy at high repetition rate to ...

Comprehensive Surf Zone Modeling Tool
SBC: Arete Associates Topic: N19AT010The objective of this project is to advance the capabilities of the Coastal Battlefield Reconnaissance and Analysis (COBRA) system by creating a Surf Zone Modelling Tool (SZT) that can create realistic synthetic imagery of the surf zone (SZ). Through the use of this synthetic imagery the COBRA Program will be enabled to inform concept of operations (CONOPS) in unfamiliar environments as well as mo ...

Conjugate heat transfer for LES of gas turbine engines
SBC: CASCADE TECHNOLOGIES INC Topic: N19BT027Current design tools for gas turbine engines invoke a variety of simplifying assumptions to estimate heat transfer to solid/metal engine components (e.g., isothermal boundary conditions). These approximations are often not valid, result in inaccurate predictions of heat transfer, and ultimately compromise the thermal integrity of propulsion and power systems. Wall-modeled large eddy simulation (WM ...

Pathogen Classification Tool (PACT)
SBC: STOTTLER HENKE ASSOCIATES, INC Topic: ST18C002Stottler Henke proposes PACT to address the threat posed by unknown/novel bacteria. Stottler Henke’s solution leverages AI/ML technologies to assess the pathogenic potential of unknown/novel bacteria for DARPA’s Biological Technologies Office. Threat assessment is inferred from phenotype as characterized by a series of assays developed by Harvard University as part of DARPA’s Friend or Foe p ...

Optimization of Fatigue Test Signal Compression Using The Wavelet Transform
SBC: ATA ENGINEERING, INC. Topic: N18BT029ATA Engineering has developed a wavelet-based damage squeezing methodology for generating optimally compressed fatigue test signals that produce an equivalent amount of fatigue damage in a predictably reduced amount of time compared to the baseline (uncompressed) signals. Fatigue-critical signal characteristics (e.g., magnitude, phase, frequency, and sequencing relationships) are identified in the ...

Optimization of Sodium Guide Star Return using Polarization and/or Modulation Control
SBC: ROCHESTER SCIENTIFIC LLC Topic: AF19AT008Laser guide stars (LGS) are artificial sources of light produced by laser-induced fluorescence from sodium atoms in the mesosphere between 85 km and 100 km altitude. The fluorescence can be detected on the ground with a telescope and used as a reference for compensating atmospheric aberrations in astronomical and space observations in conjunction with an adaptive optics system. Sodium LGS are vita ...

Reconfigurable/Cognitive Optical Communications
SBC: VULCAN WIRELESS, INC. Topic: AF18AT010As the number of optical communication terminals proliferate there will be a need to have these terminals interoperate. In the past, optical terminals were designed with a single purpose in mind. New space constellations are requiring non-RF crosslink solutions. It is expected that there will be a large number of both commercial and military systems providing crosslinks and space to earth li ...
